Pittsburgh's defense has been terrible, allowing 30 goals the last seven games while on a 3-4 skid. The Penguins will be without Evgeni Malkin (upper-body injury) on Saturday. Pittsburgh played last night and has to head to rested Toronto. Toronto is home and has outscored opponents by +33 goals, second best in the East and tied for third-best in the league. The Maple Leafs are strong all around at fifth in goals scored, while ranked in the top 12 in goals allowed, penalty killing and on the power play. The Maple Leafs are 12-4 at home against teams with a winning road record. Toronto has beaten Pittsburgh in five of the last seven meetings, including a 5-0 road win when they last met. Take Toronto.
