The two teams meet Saturday, October 3, 2026, 7:00 p.m. ET, at Scotiabank Arena, the Maple Leafs' home ice that seats 19,800. The NHL opens its 2026-27 regular season with Toronto hosting.

Toronto closed at 32 wins, 36 losses, 14 overtime losses. Coming into this game, the Leafs sit 4th in the Atlantic Division and 9th in the Eastern Conference.

Toronto is the team I trust tonight, carrying a win into the game and a better home mark. Ottawa shows up with no form to lean on this season. I'll take the Toronto Maple Leafs to win. Confidence is medium. The price is tight and Toronto's sample is only two games deep.
After the game
LostOTT 3 – TOR 2
The Leafs let one slip late in the third and that was the whole story. Marchenko and Matthews answered in the second to put Toronto ahead, but Ottawa tied it through Amadio before Halliday broke it open at 9:46 of the third. Final score: Ottawa Senators 3, Toronto Maple Leafs 2, in regulation. Pick lost, confidence was Medium going in, and the third period wiped it out.
