PPG Paints Arena will be the venue tonight when the Pittsburgh Penguins host the Columbus Blue Jackets. Both teams have been playing well, winners of 4 of their last 5, but Columbus has had issues with the Kid and company. The Blue Jackets have lost both meetings with the Penguins this year and are expected to have Joonas Korpisalo between the pipes. His numbers are not good. Korpisalo is 7-10-0 with a bloated 4.10 GAA and an SV% of just .878. On the flip side, the Penguins are expected to have Tristan Jarry defending the net and he is having another banner year. Jarry is 31-12-6 with a GAA of 2.28 and a .922 SV%. Pittsburgh has won 22 of the last 27 meetings with Columbus at PPG and the home team is 20-8 in the last 28 meetings.
