Schule's NHL Very Early GRIM REAPER B-L-O-W-O-U-T!
(NHL) Ottawa vs. Pittsburgh, 12/06/2014 8:00 AM, Score: 2 - 3
Money Line: -193.00 Pittsburgh (Home)
Result: Win
This is a 6* play on the Pittsburgh Penguins.

The Senators are coming to Pittsburgh looking to avoid a fifth consecutive loss. They've only scored six goals over those four games and have failed to score more than three goals in regulation in all their games since the end of October.

That kind of goal-production will take them nowhere near a win today, coming up against the third highest scoring team in the NHL. The Pens may not have been as effective lately as they were in the beginning of the season, but this should be a good spot to start finding the net again. The Senators are giving up the second most shots on goal in the league, especially on the road where they've allowed opponents 33 shots per game over the last four, and Craig Anderson will be a busy man for sure.

Marc Andre Fleury is likely to be back between the pipes for the Pens after being rested in Thursday's defeat to the Nucks. Fleury is coming off a shutout against the Devils and his 2.08 GAA is among the best of the No 1 goalies in the league.

The Penguins have won five of the last six meetings in Pittsburgh, a trend that will likely continue today.

Take PIT.
