I think Toronto wins this one...4-2?

This is a good matchup for the Leafs....

This year the Leafs seem to have trouble against teams that play at a high pace. Teams that may not be good top-to-bottom, but have some young guys that just love to go up and down the ice non-stop, even if those teams aren't good at defensive play. Buffalo. Ottawa, C-bus, Montreal......The leafs have trouble against young, uptempo teams. Its like if the Leafs can't outskate someone with half effort...they lose interest.

But Calgary, not really that kind of team. Sure, Calgary is pretty good at times, but they do it with more older veteran guys, playing a more responsible 'half court' game than the run-and-gun young teams. This is a better matchup for the Leafs. They do well (usually) against this type of team.
