Welcome back from illness, Evgeni Malkin! Matt Murray is back in the goal as the rotation continues.
Pretty quiet period with no scoring. Denis Malgin takes a penalty towards the end of the frame but the Pens’ streak of scoring against the Maple Leafs’ PK comes to an end.
Shots in the first are 14-10 Pittsburgh.
Toronto gets on the board first when John Tavares wins a faceoff against Sidney Crosby and the puck gets over the Jake Muzzin at the point.
