Maple Leafs vs. Flames prediction, odds and best bet for Oct. 26, 2026

The Toronto Maple Leafs are favored to beat the Calgary Flames on Monday, according to Dimers' NHL pregame model.

Our Maple Leafs vs. Flames prediction gives Toronto a 54.0% chance of winning at Scotiabank Saddledome, while the latest odds suggest the best betting value lies in under 6.5 goals.

Maple Leafs vs. Flames: Key predictions

• Maple Leafs win probability: 54.0%
• Flames win probability: 46.0%
• Flames +1.5 puck line: 66.7% cover probability
• Under 6.5 goals: 52.3% probability

Dimers' NHL pregame model estimates how many goals each team is likely to score, accounting for factors such as recent form, shooting and save percentages, home-ice advantage, and rest.

These projections power our NHL predictions, which show the probability of each team winning, covering the puck line, and the total goals going over or under the betting line.

Maple Leafs vs. Flames odds

Here are the best available odds across the moneyline, puck line, and total goals markets monitored by Dimers.

• Maple Leafs moneyline: 55¢ (Novig)
• Flames moneyline: 46¢ (Novig)
• Maple Leafs -1.5: 36¢ (Novig)
• Flames +1.5: 65¢ (Novig)

Best value bet: Under 6.5 (48¢)

The Maple Leafs may be more likely to win, but Dimers' top value bet is under 6.5 total goals at 48¢, available at Novig.

Those odds imply a 48.0% chance of the game finishing under 6.5 goals, while our model puts that probability at 52.3%.

That's a 4.3% edge on the under, the largest across the moneyline, puck line, and total goals markets based on Dimers' probabilities and the best available odds.
