Pittsburgh Penguins and Toronto Maple Leafs head-to-head record
In their last five meetings, the Toronto Maple Leafs have won four of them, dominating their recent head-to-head games against the Pittsburgh Penguins. This includes big wins like a 7-0 thrashing on the 17th of December 2023 and a strong 4-2 gain earlier during the season on the 13th of October 2024. The Penguins' only win was a close 3-2 win on the 26th of November 2023, showing that they can fight closely but have had trouble stopping Toronto's powerful offense. The Leafs look like they will keep doing well because they have powerful special teams and guys like Mitch Marner along with Joseph Woll who perform consistently well. But the Penguins' recent progress and the help of key players such as Sidney Crosby might make this a more interesting game.
