NHL - 17 December 2011

Taking an early play for tomorrow on Pittsburgh in Ottawa. Both teams are a little banged up at the moment missing key players but I think the Pens will be able to cope better. Ottawa will be without experienced D-Men Kuba and Gonchar as well as break out goalscorer Milan Michalek with a concussion which is like a plague in the league at the moment. His brother could return in a major boost for the Penguins from his own concussion, although they will still be without Letang and Crosby (you guessed it they have concussions too) and Fleury will rest.

However as I suggest I think Pittsburgh can deal with these losses especially with the form of Evgeni Malkin. If you have seen him over the last game or two he looks possessed, even if you don't like the punt, it would worth watching this game given the way he is playing.
