Pittsburgh isn't in the best shape for their home game against New Jersey. In their last five games, they have one win (3:2 over the Rangers) and four losses - 2:3 and 3:4 from Carolina, 1:5 from the Islanders, and 4:5 after overtime from Detroit. As a result, the Penguins dropped to seventh place in the Eastern Conference. As for their position in the Metropolitan Division, Pittsburgh ranks fourth, with the same number of points as the lower-ranked Islanders and Rangers. So if the Penguins are unsuccessful in the upcoming game, they risk dropping out of the playoff zone.
New Jersey Devils
New Jersey Devils were outstanding through their first 25 games of the NHL regular season, but things got complicated. In their last ten games, the Devils have only been stronger twice - 3:0 over Chicago and 4:2 over Florida. Of course, the team has failed in the other eight, and by a combined score of 16:31, one of the worst results in the East. The Devils approach Pittsburgh after two losses to Boston (3:4 and 1:3).
