The two-time defending Stanley Cup champion Penguins are a major disappointment so far this season. They've allowed the fourth-most goals in the NHL.

The Penguins could get back offensive-minded defenseman Kris Letang for this matchup and I expect them to snap out of their scoring slump facing the Flyers.

Philadelphia has given up three or more goals in five of its last six games. The Penguins were held to only one goal in their last game, a 4-1 road loss to the Red Wings on Sunday. But the Penguins did fire 38 shots on goal.

The Penguins and Flyers put up nine goals in their previous meeting this season on Nov. 27 in Pittsburgh with the Penguins winning, 5-4.
