Long an afterthought in the Eastern Conference, theToronto Maple Leafshave used a recent hot streak to get back in the playoff picture.

ThePittsburgh Penguins, meanwhile, can hardly like the way they're playing as the stretch run begins.

The Maple Leafs look to continue their surge with a fifth win in six games Saturday night against the struggling Penguins, who play their next two games in Toronto -- with three days off in between.

The Leafs (27-27-7) haven't made the playoffs in seven years, a drought that seemed certain to continue when they were 14 points out of the East's No. 8 spot at the end of January.

They're just six behind eighth-place Carolina now thanks to an 8-2-2 record in February, and they've picked up at least a point in each of their last five games. Toronto won for the fourth time in that stretch Thursday, getting two goals and two assists fromPhil Kessel while slipping past Montreal 5-4.

"It's an exciting time of year," said rookie goaltenderJames Reimer, who improved to 10-4-2 with a 2.24 goals-against average. "We've got 19 games left and we're ... creeping closer and closer, so (the playoffs are) definitely doable."

The Leafs could have been just four points out had Pittsburgh (36-21-6) played better in the opener of its five-game road trip Friday in Carolina. The Penguins fell to 2-6-2 in their last 10 games -- a stretch in which they've totaled 17 goals -- with a 4-1 loss to the Hurricanes.

Pittsburgh outshot Carolina 28-12 over the final two periods in the debut of veteran forward Alex Kovalev, reacquired Thursday for a conditional draft pick and installed on a first line with centerJordan Staal and other new acquisitionJames Neal.

"He's definitely a different player," Staal told the Penguins' official website of Kovalev. "He's very talented and sees the ice very well. It's a little different playing with him, but I started feeling better throughout the game."

Kovalev, who spent the past six seasons in the Northeast Division, has just one goal in his last 11 games versus Toronto. ESPN PREVIEW
