Pittsburgh at Montreal

Pittsburgh's offense is struggling, but they have found some offense the past five games, averaging 3.0 goals per game over that span. The good news is that they own the ninth-ranked defense in goals allowed. On the road this season, the Penguins have allowed just 2.2 goals per game so they have a chance in a low-scoring game to pull out the win. Pittsburgh is on a 37-18-2 run UNDER the total on the road. The UNDER is also 38-18-3 when the Penguins are on the road against a team with a winning home record. Montreal is #10 in the NHL in goals allowed so don't expect a lot of scoring in this game. Montreal is on a 6-0-2 run UNDER the total at home, plus 8-2-3 UNDER when their opponent scores two goals or less in their previous game, so look for a defensive war. Take Pittsburgh and the UNDER here.
