Sid the Kid and his Pittsburgh Penguins will have their hands full tonight at PPG Paints Arena when they host the best team in hockey, the Winnipeg Jets. The 16-3-0 Jets are 7-2-0 on the road, averaging 4.21 goals per game, and are expected to have Conner Hellebuyck between the pipes, who has been outstanding. Helly is 13-2-0 with a 2.20 GAA and a .923 SV%. The 7-10-4 Penguins are just 1-4 in their last 5 and it took a shootout with the San Jose Sharks to get a win or they would be 0-5. It is no surprise that Winnipeg is favored in this one. Over Pittsburgh’s last 6 home games as home dog, guess what? They are 0-6.
TONIGHT’S PICK: WINNIPEG JETS
