Jets vs Penguins: Both teams are struggling lately

The Pittsburgh Penguins will host the Winnipeg Jets on Tuesday night at PPG Paints Arena.

The Jets have lost the last three games

The Winnipeg Jets are fourth in the Western Conference with a 30-12-5 record. They are 14-5-3 on the road but have lost the last three games. The Jets are coming off a 4-2 loss to the Toronto Maple Leafs. The Jets are the best defensive team in the league, allowing only 2.30 goals per game, and are ranked 15th in the league, scoring 3.15 goals per game. Mark Scheifele leads the Jets with 41 points this season.

The Penguins need to step up

The Pittsburgh Penguins are tenth in the Eastern Conference with a 22-17-7 record. They have lost three of the last four games but are coming off a 3-2 overtime win over the Montreal Canadiens. They are 21st in the league, scoring 2.96 goals per game, and stand in sixth place, allowing 2.70 goals per game. Sidney Crosby is having another impressive season, leading the team with 50 points.

Head-to-Head

Pittsburgh has won 14 of the last 20 games against Winnipeg. The Penguins are 2-5 SU in their last 7 games overall. They are 5-4 SU in the last 12 games against teams from the Western Conference and 4-2 SU in the last 6 games against Central Division opponents. The Jets are 10-4 SU in the last 14 games, 11-5 SU in the last 16 games against Eastern Conference teams and 4-1 SU against teams from the Metropolitan Division.

Prediction and Conclusion

The Winnipeg Jets are having a promising season, as they are close to the top of the West and are the best defensive team in the NHL at the moment. The same cannot be said for the Penguins, who are in the bottom half of the East and will have to pick up their game in the upcoming weeks to get into the playoff zone. The All-Star break came at the right time since both teams were struggling. Looking back at the previous head-to-head games, the Jets won the last one, but Pittsburgh won the previous four games. This is a big game for the Penguins, who are looking to turn the season over. They have everything they need to make a huge step forward, and it will all start with a win against the Jets tonight.
