This is a 7* SITUATIONAL DESTRUCTION on the Pittsburgh Penguins.

Sometimes we feel it's necessary to complete dissect a game, looking at situational, motivational and trend based factors and in some instances we believe that a more "common sense" approach is the best way to handicap a contest and that's definitely the case here. The 0-3 Penguins will be desperate to punch one into the win column after a lacklustre start to the 2015/16 season, while the 4-1-0 Senators come in tired and complacent after their 7-3 win at Columbus just last night. It's a perfect situational play that we can take advantage of today. Also note that Ottawa is 11-18 (-4.4 units) in its last 29 when playing on back-to-back days and 21-36 (-18.4 units) after scoring four goals or more in its previous contest, while Pittsburgh is 9-5 (+2.8 units) after three or more consecutive losses. This is a price that we can live with considering all of the above factors, play on the PENGUINS.
