Four decades have passed since the Toronto Maple Leafs and Montreal Canadiens competed in the NHL playoffs together. Most analysts were administering NHL betting predictions that rallied behind the Montreal Canadiens. Despite those predictions, Toronto is winning against Montreal in the Stanley Cup first round.

The Canadiens will have two additional opportunities to match Toronto and reach the second round. If the Leafs manage to win against Montreal on May 27th and May 29th, they’ll advance onto the second round, which is something they’ve failed to accomplish for fifteen years.

NHL Betting Forums are favouring the Maple Leafs in 2021 to stand victorious over the North Division. They’ve acquired players like Auston Matthews, Jason Spezza, Jack Cambell, and Adam Brooks. These four individuals have rallied their teammates during the playoffs to display powerful and unforgettable performances.

This was a similar story for the Montreal Canadiens in 1978/79. That would be the last time these two teams met during the playoffs opening round. The version of Toronto that was witnessed four decades ago is significantly different to today. It’s created challenges for Montreal’s Coach, Dominique Ducharme. He’s finding it gruelling to compete against the strategies of Toronto’s Coach, Sheldon Keefe.
