Penguins vs Predators Betting Table

Penguins vs Predators
Pittsburgh Penguins	-120	-122	-125
Nashville Predators	EVEN	+102	+105

So the question begs itself, do we stay content with just the moneyline? The answer is no of course.

Can Pittsburgh Shine In Stockholm?

Penguins vs Predators bets ask can Pittsburgh shine in Stockholm? Again, the toughest part of this matchup is that both teams are mightily struggling right now. Pittsburgh has dropped four of their past five decisions (one via a shootout). Nashville has been even worse losing five straight (two by overtime). Worse, the Predators are 15 points off the division lead (Colorado). They never recovered last year from such a poor start.

The problem with Nashville is the same as last year. Their top players cannot score goals. Jonathan Marchessault and Steven Stamkos have combined for seven goals. Filip Forsberg has seven by himself (leads team with 14 points). The problem is the Predators have already played 18 games. Goaltending and defense have slid back again with the injury to Roman Josi. Josi is Nashville's best player, captain, and leader. No one truly knows when he might return.

Heading to Sweden might be the best thing for both teams. Pittsburgh got off to a great start only to see it evaporate of late. The last two games have been particularly painful losing by one goal. They slowed down the high flying Devils only to lose in a shootout. Against Los Angeles, they could not find that late goal to tie the game. Pittsburgh's solace here is that they are facing a team that finds so many different ways to lose. Nashville ranks 25th in offense and 31st in goals allowed. This could help the Penguins.

It is one big reason why the Penguins should be able to win despite the numbers on Friday afternoon.

Penguins vs Predators Bets Look At The Game Total

Next, Penguins vs Predators bets look at the game total for Friday afternoon. Now, the reason is to look at the game total is understandable. There is a plus number for the Over of 6.5 goals at (+105). Will that last? Yes, it's a good question. If this slips to Even, the wager may be worthy here still. These are two teams that are desperate to score goals. With star power such as Sidney Crosby and Evgeni Malkin from the Pittsburgh side, goals could come in bunches (see their 5-3 win versus Washington and Alex Ovechkin).

Now, the Penguins are seventh in goals for with 57 and eighth in goals against at 45. Unfortunately, the worry with Pittsburgh is again the mounting injuries. Starting goaltender Tristan Jarry is out of the lineup, Rickard Rakell (Crosby's Right Winger) is out too. Add in injuries to some depth players and the Injured Reserve list is starting to look like a M*A*S*H*unit.

For us, the Under and Over have an equal chance of connecting. As talented as both teams are, they want to play a little tighter from a defensive perspective. However, can they? That is the big question. This may be the one time to risk the goals anyway. Nashville's defense has been horrible since Josi left the lineup on October 25th. Over the past almost three weeks, the Predators rank dead last in goals allowed.

The Predators have scored seven goals in their previous two games but yielded 11. Again, it is the latter that intrigues bettors knowing that Nashville almost has to outscore their problems at this juncture. With their coach on the hot seat and several players too, the pressure to score is great here!

Hello Sidney Crosby!

Penguins vs Predators Bets bid hello to Sidney Crosby. One of the best players of this generation plays with another iconic talent in Evgeni Malkin. Crosby and Malkin have been a staple in Pittsburgh hockey for almost two decades! It is hard to believe that in 2025 they are still averaging a point a game or more and yet here we are. Crosby has 11 goals on the season and Malkin leads the league with 18 assists.

By the way, despite the cold stretch of late, Malkin has assists in four of his previous five starts. He also has 4+ shots in three of those games. The 39 year old suffers from awful shooting luck (7%). At some point one has to believe the goals are going to start coming. It also begs another question. Could both Crosby and Malkin score on Friday? The answer is potentially yes. Malkin is the longer shot at +200 but Crosby rings in at +165.

So, digging a little deeper. Each one to get a power play point stands at +175. Consider us sold on that one.
