This is a 10* on the PENGUINS

This will be the second night of a back to back for the Penguins, who just got done playing three in a row against the Flyers. Saturday’s 4-3 victory made it a winning “three-game set” and now Pittsburgh sits fourth in the division with 27 points, level with Philadelphia. Three points behind are the Rangers, who have won three in a row after a terrible start to the season. New York also played yesterday, in New Jersey, where they won 6-1. It was the second straight win there (in NJ) and both games saw the Rangers score six goals. That sounds impressive, but the Devils are bad. The Penguins scored 12 goals in their three games against the Flyers. They get to play on home ice in this battle of unrested teams, which is an advantage. They’ve gone 9-2 SU in the Igloo so far. The one game they lost here to the Flyers saw them blow a 3-0 lead, so really the Pens should have a 10-1 home record and be on a three-game win streak themselves. They’re 8-4 their last 12 as it is. Play on PITTSBURGH
