Pittsburgh Penguins vs. Toronto Maple Leafs Prediction
I’m on Toronto here. I know Pittsburgh’s been outstanding on the road but we’ve started to see inconsistencies with their play as of late and I just worry that we could see more of the same here. Toronto’s started to find their mojo offensively as of late, and I think that this ends up being a Toronto victory at home so give me the Maple Leafs here.
