NHL Hockey Free Pick: San Jose Sharks vs Toronto Maple Leafs<\/h2>\n

Hockey betting<\/strong><\/a> fans sure are getting their money\u2019s worth from the free nhl picks<\/strong><\/a> we give out here at Capperspicks.com.<\/p>\n

Team records:<\/strong>
\nSan Jose: 38-11-9
\nToronto: 19-29-11<\/p>\n

Tonight, 7:00 p.m. ET
\nSportsbook odds: Sharks -150, Maple Leafs +130 <\/p>\n

Despite their low perch in the standings, the Leafs are a tricky team to figure out at the sportsbook of late. Jean-Sebastien Giguere has back-to-back shutouts since arriving in a trade from Anaheim. More importantly, Dion Phaneuf has affected the team in several ways since the Leafs acquired him in a blockbuster deal a week ago. His physicality is rubbing off on his teammates and his presence on the power play has opened up space for Phil Kessel, who has six points in his last three games. Lastly and sadly, the death of general manager Brian Burke\u2019s son Brendan proved to be a major motivator on the weekend, as the Leafs dominated the Senators in an emotional victory the day after the tragedy.

\nWith all that momentum, can the Leafs topple the juggernaut San Jose Sharks? I don\u2019t think so. The Leafs certainly won\u2019t make it easy but the Sharks have two of the most notorious Leaf killers in the post-lockout era. Dany Heatley has 27 goals and 50 points in just 37 career games against Toronto. At the Air Canada Centre, he has 16 goals in 18 games. His linemate Joe Thornton has six points in his last two games against the Leafs. Expect an entertaining game but the Sharks are just too elite for the Leafs to handle.<\/p>\n
