Prediction for the NHL match which will take place on January 28. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

San Jose Sharks

San Jose finally dropped their hands. The Sharks have literally resigned themselves to the fact that they simply have nothing to play for in the current campaign. They've lost nine of their past ten games, all in regulation time. They're coming into this game with a streak of six straight losses, and the day before they fell to Florida 2-7. In the overall Western Conference table, San Jose sits in 16th position with 34 points.

Pittsburgh Penguins

Pittsburgh sits in 15th position in the overall Eastern Conference table with 48 points in the asset. It seems that the Penguins will not be able to make the playoffs in the current campaign - the density is incredibly high, and like the difference with the wild-card zone is only seven points, but there are a whole bunch of contenders. And Mike Sullivan's charges look the weakest among them. After a 5:1 win over Los Angeles, Pittsburgh first fell to Anaheim (1:5) and then to Seattle (1:4).
