Next Sunday night will bring an ideal opportunity for the Pittsburgh Penguins to recover, as they will play at the Chicago Blackhawks at 06:00 pm CST. For the referred game, it isn’t surprising that the bookies’ odds have made the Penguins favorites to win, but it’s worth noting that winning this game won’t be an easy task due to the Blackhawks’ urge for securing a victory at home.
Furthermore, the Pittsburgh Penguins have lost all the positive momentum they built at the beginning of the regular season, and it is truly concerning that they haven’t won any of their last five games in regulation time. With these disappointing results in mind, the Penguins should show a significant defensive improvement, so trying to avoid conceding three or more goals in this game is expected to be their main priority.
On the other hand, the Chicago Blackhawks have faced a very similar trend too, as they haven’t won any of their last five games in regulation time. However, their most recent shootout victory over the Dallas Stars was truly unexpected and could provide them with the necessary motivation to improve their offense, which has been deeply dependent on Tyler Bertuzzi and Connor Bedard.
