Pittsburgh at Detroit

Premium Pick

This is a good matchup for the fast skating Pittsburgh offense of Sidney Crosby, Evgeni Malkin, and Phil Kessel. The Penguins are 57-28 against losing teams and face a struggling Detroit squad that is #26 in goals scored, #25 in goals allowed. Detroit is on a 3-8 run at home and 19-43 against the Eastern Conference. In their last eight home games they've allowed 24 goals, including a 4-0 loss to Anaheim in their last home contest. Look for a one-sided win by the defending champs. Play Pittsburgh on the puckline.
