Even in his absence, I expect Auston Matthews to be an active shooter. The same goes for Calgary&#8217;s Jonathan Huberdeau. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Check out my Maple Leafs vs. Flames props for Feb. 4.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Maple Leafs vs. Flames props<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"insights\"><strong>Go to full <a href=\"https:\/\/www.northstarbets.com\/sportsbook\/sports\/ice_hockey\/competitions\/10011\">NHL betting markets<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Best bet: Matthews over 3.5 shots (-125)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s looking like Matthews will be without his top playmaker on Tuesday, but I don&#8217;t think that matters <em>too <\/em>much.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He&#8217;s projected to slot alongside Matthews Knies, an elite puck retriever, and Max Domi, whose greatest strength is passing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Marner is on a different level than both, but Matthews has done well in his absence. Check out his stats in the last 10 games without No. 16:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>4+ shots in 9\/10 games<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>5+ shots in 7\/10 games<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>7+ shots in 4\/10 games<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>The Leafs need their captain to supply offence and I expect him to be trigger-happy tonight. The quality of the chances might not be as good without Marner, but the chances will still be there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Calgary is tied for allowing the ninth-most shots per game (29.13), according to Stat Muse. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Key stat:<\/strong> Matthews has 5+ shots in four of his last five games. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Quick picks<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Huberdeau over 1.5 shots (-150):<\/strong> I made this bet on Saturday when the Flames played the Seattle Kraken and it cashed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Huberdeau isn&#8217;t the scorer he used to be with the Florida Panthers, but he still paces the Flames with 37 points through 52 games.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The veteran centre is expected to bring offence, and this is a very modest total for him to reach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He&#8217;s averaging 1.82 shots per game this year and has cleared this mark in eight of his last nine games.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As mentioned, Toronto is a solid matchup for this wager. The Leafs are coming off a poor defensive outing on Saturday when they gave up a whopping 48 shots to the Oilers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Picks made at 12:30 p.m. ET on 02\/04\/2025.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Toronto Maple Leafs continue to roll through the prairies when they take on the Calgary Flames on Tuesday night.
