Rousing Ovation for 2024 3rd Overall pick Beckett Sennecke (Via: Derek Lee) Monday has one game on the slate with all the hockey world watching as Auston Matthews and the Toronto Maple Leafs take on the Tampa Bay Lightning. It'll be an eventful game and provides a solid opportunity to restart our Pad Stacking Challenge. If you aren’t familiar, the Pad Stacking Challenge is an open betting strategy that uses the concept of building our bank and rolling over our profits. We do this by stacking our winnings through well-researched picks given out daily that will hopefully build our bank. All betting lines are from Bet365 and are subject to change. Hockey is a difficult sport to predict so please gamble responsibly. Bet: Auston Matthews anytime goal (-130) Both teams will be playing hard in this one as they are coming off a loss and will look at tonight's game as a bounce back spot. Toronto will certainly have this game circled on their calendar as they've been involved in a fierce rivalry with the Lightning for years now. It's been a solid matchup for the Buds as they've beaten the Bolts in eight of their last 12 matchups. In those games, new Leafs captain Auston Matthews has dominated with nine goals and six assists for 15 points.

We made the wrong choice by fading him recently and we aim to not try that again anytime soon. A $10 bet on Matthews to score would pay out $17.69 that we can aim to grow throughout the week. If you want even bigger profits, the Leafs are 31-9-7 since the start of the 2023-24 season when Matthews scores and a parlay with the two would turn $10 into $26 if you are feeling bold.
