Tampa Bay at Pittsburgh

Both teams had to play yesterday, picking up losses. First-place Tampa Bay can play any style, a top-notch defensive team, fourth in the NHL in goals allowed, eighth in penalty killing. Tampa Bay is 22-12 UNDER away when playing its third game in five days. Pittsburgh is off a 4-3 loss at Boston last night registering just 20 shots on net. Second-leading scorer Evgeni Malkin (21 points) missed his second straight game with an upper-body injury. The Penguins are #26 in goals scored and with both teams having played last night, look for more defense than oddsmakers expect. Play the UNDER.
