The Toronto Maple Leafs hit a pivotal moment in Game 48 as they continue their road trip against the Winnipeg Jets, looking to halt a slide after back-to-back losses and secure crucial points before the Olympic break. Coming off an emotionally draining overtime loss to Vegas and without William Nylander due to injury, Toronto faces tough lineup decisions as every point becomes magnified in a tightening Eastern Conference playoff race.

In this full game preview, we break down projected forward lines, defensive pairings, and power-play options, including looks alongside Auston Matthews, John Tavares, Max Domi, and emerging roles for Scott Laughton in key defensive situations. We also examine the goaltending matchup between Connor Hellebuyck and Dennis Hildeby, plus a full betting preview and best bet for the night.
