Minnesota Wild at Toronto Maple Leafs Preview & Picks

Toronto are tipped to rebound from back-to-back defeats with a home win.

The Maple Leafs' form dipped last week, so a meeting with a Minnesota team who have dropped a bunch of games recently could be perfect timing.

  • Toronto Maple Leafs are 7-2 in the previous 9 meetings
  • Toronto Maple Leafs are 4-0 in the last 4 meetings at home
  • Minnesota Wild are 2-5 in their last 7 games
  • The Under cashed when the two teams met last November

Head To Head

  • Toronto Maple Leafs lead the all-time series 17-11-3
  • Minnesota Wild won 2-1 in overtime when the two teams last met on November 3

Minnesota Wild Form

Minnesota head to Toronto looking to win back-to-back games for the first time in a couple of weeks.

The Wild ended 2024 with a victory and built on that by winning their first three outings of 2025.

That run was ended by a 6-1 loss to Colorado, and they then failed to build on a 3-1 win in San Jose as they lost 4-1 in Vegas, 5-3 at home to Edmonton and 6-2 in Nashville.

Minnesota avoided a fourth straight loss, winning 3-1 in Colorado, only to then lose 4-0 to Utah at 5-4 to Calgary at home.

The Wild bounced back over the weekend though, as they travelled to Chicago take down the Blackhawks, 4-2.

Toronto Maple Leafs Form

Toronto return home in need of a victory, having lost five of their last eight games and each of the last two.

The Maple Leafs enjoyed a five-game win streak in early 2025, only to see it end with a 6-3 victory in Carolina.

They then lost 3-0 to Vancouver and 4-1 to Dallas at home, before rebounding with a run of three consecutive victories.

Toronto beat New Jersey 4-3 in overtime, before downing Montreal 7-3 on the road and Tampa Bay 5-3 at home.

The Maple Leafs failed to keep that run going however, as they were blown out 5-1 at home by Columbus, before losing 2-1 in Ottawa.

Verdict

It feels like only a matter of time before Toronto get back on track, and this is a great opportunity.

They have a good recent record against a Minnesota team on a rough run of form, so we are backing the hosts to stop the rot.
