The Battle of Ontario could end in a sweep, as the Ottawa Senators host the Toronto Maple Leafs at the Canadian Tire Center on Saturday night.

The Leafs took a commanding 3-0 lead in the series with a 3-2 victory on Thursday, courtesy of an overtime goal from defenseman Simon Benoit. Toronto has had a distinct advantage on special teams and the edge in goal with Anthony Stolarz outdueling Linus Ullmark, but Ottawa has been the better of the two clubs at even-strength.
