Not only is there a lot of skating speed with both of these teams, but each has an aggressive offensive mentality. So it's not surprising the Maple Leafs and Penguins each rank in the top-five in scoring.

Toronto has scored three or more goals in nine of its last 10 games. The Maple Leafs have won five in a row. Those victories have all come at home. I expect the Maple Leafs to carry a strong offensive approach into this matchup. They aren't going to back down by going into a defensive shell.

The Penguins have scored at least three goasl in nine of their past 10 games. Sidney Crosby, Evgeni Malkin and Phil Kessel have all been dynamite during the Penguins' 10-game home win streak. The Maple Leafs just surrendered 54 shots on goal to the Blue Jackets in their last game this past Wednesday.
