If ever there were a buy-low spot on the Penguins, this is it. Pittsburgh heads to Philadelphia down 2-0 in its playoff series, having lost 3-2 and 3-0 at home. The Flyers' defense and goalie Dan Vladar have stymied the Penguins, who were the NHL's third-highest-scoring team during the regular season. Pittsburgh has the experience, talent, and great veterans with Sidney Crosby, Evgeni Malkin, Kris Letang, and Erik Karlsson to win this crucial Game 3. The Penguins are 21-12-8 on the road. Pittsburgh is 0-for-7 on the power play during the series. The Penguins ranked seventh on the power play during the regular season. One plus for Pittsburgh has been the solid goaltending of Stuart Skinner. The last time the Flyers hosted the Penguins, on Dec. 1, they lost 5-1. Take the Penguins.
