Premium Pick

Pittsburgh is rested and hungry for a win after dropping three in a row. This is still a super-talented team, #8 in the NHL in goals allowed, #9 on the power play and fourth in penalty killing. Marc-Andre Fleury is 2-2-1 with a 1.76 GAA over a five-game stretch against St. Louis. He has compiled a 1.00 GAA in his last six starts overall. They are on a 9-1-1 run UNDER the total. The Penguins are 14-7-3 on the road with Evgeni Malkin and Sidney Crosby back and playing healthy. St. Louis had to play last night against Boston, so it's a tough situational spot. St. Louis goalie Brian Elliott has a 3.22 goals-against average in nine starts since the All-Star break, prior to which his 1.86 mark ranked #5 in the NHL. The Penguins are 90-41 after allowing two or fewer goals in their previous game. Pittsburgh is 18-6-2 UNDER the total against the Western Conference, and when these teams meet the UNDER is 9-1-3, including 5-1-1 UNDER in St. Louis. Take Pittsburgh and the game total UNDER.
