Pittsburgh Penguins: Atop division standings so far

Pittsburgh has enjoyed an incredible start to the season with a record of 20-10-1, which is good for 41 points. They are nine points ahead of the second-place Washington Capitals in the Metropolitan Division of the Eastern Conference. The team they host tonight, the Columbus Blue Jackets, are 14 points behind the division-leading Penguins. Pittsburgh has won the first two games of the series this year by scores of 4-2 and 3-0. 

Columbus Blue Jackets: Looking for three in a row

Even though they have to visit the Penguins tonight, the Blue Jackets are very confident coming into this game while on a two-game winning streak. Columbus has struggled against Pittsburgh this season, scoring just two goals in two games played. The Blue Jackets will need to put together a better offensive effort against Pittsburgh if they want to win this game and grab two points in an effort to right the ship as the season goes deeper into the schedule.

On Monday night, the Columbus Blue Jackets will take on the Pittsburgh Penguins in Pennsylvania. For this game, we will find the betting odds at TopBet.eu so we can place our bets prior to the puck hitting the ice. We will bet 10 percent of our bankroll on the Penguins and the -110 money line at home over the Blue Jackets tonight as they continue their hot start to the season.
