Pittsburgh has won nine of 12 meetings against Minnesota, including four of five on the road. The Penguins will try to snap a losing streak and the Wild have lost four of their past six games after a 3-1 defeat at Vancouver on Friday night. Minnesota goalie Filip Gustavsson has lost five of seven starts and he is expected in net today. The Wild were outshot 38-19 by the Canucks and Gutavsson stopped 17 of the 19. However, there is a chance the Wild will go with Marc-Andre Fleury, who would be facing his former team for the last time. Fleury allowed six goals his last appearance against Utah on Feb. 27. Minnesota has scored only 11 goals in six games. Take the Penguins.

Pro Picks
Minnesota at Pittsburgh
Minnesota had its four-game win streak snapped in a 7-5 loss to Philadelphia on Saturday, but it was the Wild's sixth consecutive road game. They have had two days off before playing one more at Pittsburgh and the Penguins have lost five in a row while being outscored 22-10. The Penguins also will be a tired team after playing four road contests in seven days and they are last in the league defensively, allowing 4.3 goals per game. Joel Blomqvist is expected to start for Pittsburgh with a 3.34 goals-against average and he has lost his past two starts while yielding eight goals. Marc-Andre Fleury is confirmed for the Wild and he had 24 saves in a 4-2 win over Tampa Bay his last appearance. Take the Wild.

Pro Picks
Pittsburgh at Minnesota
The Pittsburgh Penguins look to improve on a rather disappointing first half. They came out strong and in charge in their first game back after the break. They beat a very good Winnipeg team convincingly, by a score of 3-0. Minnesota has been meandering around the .500 mark most of the season. They have struggled to play well for long stretches, and that makes this team more vulnerable after a win. They are currently 2-4 in their last six following a win. Pittsburgh came out hot and I think they are on a mission The Wild are 1-9 in their last 10 vs. Pittsburgh, and have dropped the last four at home. Make the play on Pittsburgh.
