Sabers vs. Penguins Predictions, Odds, Lines and Picks - December 10 | 2022 NHL Regular Season

The Buffalo Sabers and Pittsburgh Penguins face off against each other for the second day in a row!

It was an epic of a game yesterday, with penalties playing the most prominent role. Pittsburgh held the lead late in the third, but Buffalo was able to convert a powerplay to send the game to overtime.

However, before the game could even get to extra time, a costly penalty by Buffalo gave Pittsburgh a man advantage. The Pens started OT with a four-on-three gift, and it was 90 seconds before Jeff Carter netted the difference maker.

Sabers vs. Penguins Best Picks

Rickard Rakell was unbelievable in Anaheim, but due to the East coast bias, he never received the spotlight he deserved.

Now, playing in Pittsburgh, on a line with Sidney Crosby and Jake Guentzel, he is receiving all the credit he deserves. Rakell had two points last night, and he should be good for one tonight.

Ricard Rakell Over 0.5 Points (-142)

While those aren't the best odds for a prop play, bettors may consider parlaying it or a different play altogether.

Knowing the rate at which goals will be scored in this game, it's probably safe to assume there will be one early. Both second-string goalies are projected to start today, and with both teams possessing a top-tier offense, goals will not be hard to come by.

While five minutes is a short duration, given the payout, the odds match the risk.

Goal in the First Five Minutes (+148)

Sabers vs. Penguins Predictions

Beating teams on back-to-back nights is no easy task, and Buffalo made the first win difficult for the home team.

Typically, a team would have an edge with Casey DeSmith expected to start, but if Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen is in between the pipes for Buffalo, Pittsburgh's offense should wreak havoc.

Lukkonen is one of the worst backup tendies in the league, and as this offense is heating up, they will have a file day with him. Pittsburgh deserves the edge in this one, but the over is the smart bet.

Over 6.5 Goals (-125)
