The Penguins are struggling, losing four straight and outscored 18-7. It won't get any easier on Wednesday. They'll face a Avs team at home and in top form. Colorado has won six straight, outscoring their opponents 28-12 in that stretch. Looking at the numbers, the Avs have a sizable edge on defense and the Power Play, and their formidable offense is finally clicking.

Penguins' goalie Jarry has had some very poor outings lately, with just an .849 sv. % in March. Colorado's likely net minder Georgiev ha s been the opposite, earning a shutout in his last appearance, and sporting a shiny .975 sv. % in his last three games.

The Penguins are just .500 on the road this season and are an "also-ran" in the playoff race at the moment. The Avs are challenging for first in the West. Take the Avs, at home, to continue to win.
