Pittsburgh at San Jose

Pittsburgh has been impressive in this series, up 2-1. Despite losing the last game in overtime, they outshot San Jose 42-26, leading 2-1 in the third. Rookie goalie Matt Murray (13-5 in the playoffs) made 23 saves and the Pittsburgh defense blocked 38 shots. Stars Sidney Crosby and center Evgeni Malkin form one of the best one-two punches in the league, but this is a deep, talented roster. Newcomer Phil Kessel has scored 10 goals among his 19 playoff points, both leading the team, while linemate Nick Bonino has a team-high 13 assists. The Penguins are 22-7 against a team with a winning record, on a 13-5 run on the road, plus 21-5 playing on one day of rest. The Penguins are also on a 6-3 playoff run with the three losses by just one goal. They are capable of winning the game, but as a dog the wagering value is for them to win or lose by one goal.
