It's been eight years since the Leafs missed the playoffs but a dissapointing season has kept them from getting there this year. As bad as it's been for Toronto, it's been worse for Pittsburgh. The Penguins ended with the worst record in the Eastern Conference. Toronto has the much better team and I believe the motivation to win this one. They don't want to end on a sour note, especially coming off a 6-0 loss to Buffalo last game. Pittsburgh is just THAT bad (giving up 3.9 goals per game on the road) and Toronto wants to end on a good note. Maple Leafs are the pick.
