After all that, the Leafs covered against Chicago on Wednesday night. Still, I think those prices were outrageous. Aside from the Petr Mrazek save prop – which cashed – I didn’t get involved.

At any rate, the Thursday edition of Leafs Morning Take started with a breakdown of Toronto’s 5-2 victory against the Blackhawks. First, I rifled off my quick thoughts on the impressive outing, then Jay Rosehill dropped by for another instalment of 3 Hits With Rosie.

After that, I welcomed in TLN’s Nick Richard for a chat about Toronto’s prospect pipeline. With the trade deadline fast approaching, it was good to get a rundown of what’s happening down on the farm. In the next few weeks and day, you may see a couple of the prospects we talked about going for established talent. That’s just how it works.

Lastly, full credit to Rosie for hitting on yesterday’s pick (John Tavares OVER 0.5 apples). With that in mind, here’s today’s PointsBet Canada bet of the day.

Make sure to join us tomorrow at 11 AM ET for the Friday edition as we tee up this weekend’s back-to-back against Montreal and Chicago.
