Toronto stopped a two-game skid with a 4-1 victory over Detroit on Saturday as John Tavares scored two goals and Ilya Samsonov had 22 saves for the Maple Leafs. Matt Murray is confirmed for tonight's game and he is 9-4-2 with a 2.61 goals-against average and .913 save percentage. Philadelphia suddenly has a four-game win streak after struggling through most of the season, but only one of the wins was against a team with a winning record. Carter Hart will be in net with an 11-11-6 record and 2.86 GAA for the Flyers. Toronto has won the past five meetings, including 4-3 on Dec. 22 and the Maple Leafs have won nine of 11 versus teams with losing records and they are 21-6 against the Metropolitan Division. The Flyers are 5-28 versus Atlantic Division teams. Take the Maple Leafs.
