Heading into the season, there was a lot of talk about which teams would have the worst NHL betting odds. There were very few hickey fans who mentioned the Pittsburgh Penguins in that group, but they are sliding ever closer to the bottom of the pack. They will try and stop the bleeding on Wednesday, December 30 when they welcome in the Toronto Maple Leafs to the Consol Energy Center. Puck drop is set for 7 PM EST on TSN.

Toronto Maple Leafs vs Pittsburgh Penguins NHL Betting Odds
These are a pair of teams that are not very good, and while you would think that the Penguins would have the home ice edge, you have to look at their recent body of work before taking on that bet. This looks like a game that will not have a lot of goals, which might make the UNDER a good possibility. Toronto is 7-18 SU in its last 25 games on the road The total has gone UNDER in 14 of Toronto’s last 20 games on the road Toronto is 0-5 SU in its last 5 games when playing Pittsburgh The total has gone UNDER in 4 of Toronto’s last 6 games when playing Pittsburgh Toronto is 1-7 SU in its last 8 games when playing on the road against Pittsburgh Pittsburgh is 2-6 SU in its last 8 games The total has gone UNDER in 4 of Pittsburgh’s last 6 games Pittsburgh is 1-5 SU in its last 6 games at home Pittsburgh is 5-0 SU in its last 5 games when playing Toronto The total has gone UNDER in 4 of Pittsburgh’s last 6 games when playing Toronto
