Pittsburgh has lost 6 in a row overall. They do not want to make it 7 against Colorado Saturday
Colorado takes its 16-10-3 mark to Pittsburgh to rumble with the 7-15-6 Penguins.
In a game that potentially could see plenty of scoring, the total opened high, at 6.5. The line opened at 145 in favor of the Avalanche.
Last time out, at Continental Airlines Arena against New Jersey, the Avalanche as underdogs defeated the Devils 4-3. The game was an over play.
The Penguins lost to the Wild 5-0 as 120 underdogs. That contest went under the closing total.
Colorado comes in boasting one of the league's best offences, while their hosts have the ignominious honor of being one of the league's more porous defences. Pittsburgh ranks 30th overall allowing on average 4.1 goals per game, while the Avalanche rank #2 in filling the net.
Some trends to consider:
Colorado is 2-2-2 OU in its last 6 games against Pittsburgh
Colorado is 12-6-0 SU in its last 18 games after scoring 3 to 4 goals
Pittsburgh is 2-2-2 OU in its last 6 games against Colorado
Pittsburgh is 7-16-1 SU in its last 24 games after being shutout
Pittsburgh is 2-5-1 OU in its last 8 at home
Next up:
Colorado home to Ottawa, Monday, December 12
Pittsburgh at Detroit, Monday, December 12
