They have both a better offense and a better defense and both teams are coming into this matchup in poor form, as the Preds are 1-8 in their last 9 games and the Pens 1-4 in their last 5. Since both teams are struggling I’m going with the one playing better hockey this season. Take the Pittsburgh Penguins on the moneyline in this one.
