Coach Tremblay · Published Nov 3, 2026
Utah Mammoth to win
The read: Lean to Utah, no comfortable cushion despite Toronto's home ice.
- Utah Mammoth have the stronger results over recent seasons than Toronto Maple Leafs.
- Even though Toronto plays at home: home sides won 53% of NHL games over the last 2 seasons, away sides 47%.

The market lists Utah as the favourite. Decimal odds sit at 1.77 (-130) for Utah and 2.10 (+110) for Toronto, read Tuesday, November 3, 2026, at 7:50 a.m. ET.
Toronto plays at home, but Utah carries the better results over recent seasons. My read: home ice isn't enough to erase that gap. I'll take the Utah Mammoth to win. My confidence: low, the case cuts both ways between these two clubs.
