NHL pick of the day · Fri, Oct 16 · 9:00 PM ET
Pittsburgh Penguins at Colorado Avalanche
Sidney Crosby Has Gone Quiet at the Wrong Time
The pick: Colorado Avalanche -1.5 at +104 (FanDuel)
Won. Final: Pittsburgh Penguins 2, Colorado Avalanche 5.
Colorado -1.5 at +104 on FanDuel wins if Pittsburgh's road offense stays as quiet as it has been all month - and the game logs say it will. The Penguins are 1-4 in their last five completed regular-season games of 2026, putting up 2.4 goals for per game while allowing 3.4 against. That -1 goal differential per game is the number the spread is built on.
