Pittsburgh at New Jersey

Pittsburgh has lost eight of its last 10 games following a 6-2 defeat against Carolina on Sunday and ironically is playing worse as it is getting healthier than it was while dealing with several injuries. Mentally, the Penguins are not as strong as earlier in the season and the goaltending wasn't sharp as they have allowed 11 goals their last two games versus Washington and the Hurricanes. Meanwhile, New Jersey is playing for pride and it beat the New York Rangers 6-4 on Saturday as Travis Zajac and Kyle Palmieri each scored twice to back MacKenzie Blackwood, who had 31 saves to improve to 8-1-2 his last 11 starts. The Devils have won six of their last nine games and they are 18-8 the last 26 meetings at home. Take the Devils for my NHL Underdog Game of the Month.
