Penguins should continue their high pressing, aggressive scoring playstyle while Chicago has to prove they have gotten better on defense with how bad they were last season especially on the road. This game will likely be high scoring, as the Blackhawks have made some acquisitions that should boost their offense with Connor Bedard taking over the scoring duties from Patrick Kane who left in the off-season. Regardless of how good the Penguins defense has been, their offense has been electric and getting Erik Karlsson who is an elite defender, will only improve their chances of a high playoff seed, but I like goals in this one.
