Pittsburgh at Montreal

The defending Stanley Cup Champions Penguins were roughed-up by the lowly Carolina Hurricanes in their last outing, so you can bet they will be playing here with a chip on their shoulder. The Pens have gone 10-5-0 on the road, so they certainly have shown continued ability to outplay opponents on the road winning 67% of the time. The Canadiens have only won three times in their last 10 home games, catching a fourth in a shootout. The Penguins have excelled on the road as a favorite where they are 10-1 in their last 11. Overall they are now 39-12 as a favorite in their last 51. The Canadiens are not upset-minded as they have turned in a 4-17 mark against teams that are winning at a rate of .600 or higher, and just 13-29 in their last 42 as a dog. The Pens have a chip on their shoulder for this one and I'll back them here.
