San Jose Sharks vs Pittsburgh Penguins Prediction & Picks

On November 11, 2026 our model has run Pittsburgh Penguins at San Jose Sharks and priced every market it can. Our strongest call is Pittsburgh Penguins To Win (-133), which we rate lean confidence. Every bet below is our own number against the price on the board, in plain English.

Every bet we like in this game

San Jose Sharks vs Pittsburgh Penguins: Pittsburgh Penguins To Win (-133)

Odds correct at time of publishing

The odds are offering a decent chance for the Pittsburgh Penguins to win against the San Jose Sharks. While both teams have struggled lately, the Penguins have shown they can be tougher on defense, blocking fewer shots than the Sharks. San Jose has been slightly more aggressive in hitting, but their recent record of just three wins in ten games shows they are having a hard time. The Penguins also have a similar winning record, taking only two out of their last ten games. This matchup feels very close, almost like a coin flip. The biggest risk here is both teams are struggling, making it hard to predict who will come out on top in this battle at the SAP Center.

San Jose Sharks vs Pittsburgh Penguins: San Jose Sharks 3-Way Moneyline (+175)

Odds correct at time of publishing

The odds of +175 for the San Jose Sharks are tempting because they show the potential for a solid payout. The Sharks have won three out of their last ten games, and they've been tough on defense, blocking an average of 14.1 shots per game. On the other side, the Pittsburgh Penguins have only won two of their last ten games, and their numbers show they aren't blocking as many shots as the Sharks. The game is close, so it could go either way, but San Jose at home has a real chance to take this one.

San Jose Sharks vs Pittsburgh Penguins: Pittsburgh Penguins -1.5 Puck Line (+180)

Odds correct at time of publishing

The odds for the Pittsburgh Penguins to win by at least two goals are quite appealing at +180. Although they've won only two of their last ten games, our numbers show they have a solid chance against the San Jose Sharks, who have also struggled lately with just three wins in their last ten. The Penguins have been playing tough, blocking 12.3 shots per game, while the Sharks have been landing a lot of hits, but their overall performance hasn't been enough to secure consistent wins. One concrete risk is that both teams are in a slump, making this matchup feel very close. However, the Penguins have the potential to step up and take this one by a couple of goals, especially if they can capitalize on their chances. With the price offering good value, it's worth considering this pick for a little extra excitement.

San Jose Sharks vs Pittsburgh Penguins: Michael Misa Under 1.5 Shots on Goal (-106)

Odds correct at time of publishing

Michael Misa hasn't made a big impact in his recent games, and he's facing two teams struggling with scoring. The San Jose Sharks have only won 3 out of their last 10 games, and the Pittsburgh Penguins are even worse, winning just 2 out of their last 10. Both teams are known for blocking shots, and Misa might find it tough to get good chances as a result. The Sharks block 14.1 shots a game, right at league average, while the Penguins allow fewer opportunities with 12.3 blocks per game. With both teams focused on defense and Misa's current form, betting on him to have under 1.5 shots on goal seems like a smart move. Just remember, he could surprise us, but it looks like a tight game for scoring chances.

San Jose Sharks vs Pittsburgh Penguins: Evgeni Malkin Over 1.5 Shots on Goal (-164)

Odds correct at time of publishing

Evgeni Malkin is a key player for the Pittsburgh Penguins, and he has a good shot at getting over 1.5 shots on goal in this game. The Sharks have been allowing a decent number of shots, and Malkin is often right in the mix when it comes to offense. Even though both teams have struggled recently, Malkin has the skills to find opportunities. One thing to watch is how well the Sharks defend; they block a lot of shots, so Malkin will need to be sharp. Still, with his talent and the way the game is shaping up, this bet looks promising. Just remember, there's no guarantee he hits this mark.

That is the whole read on this one. Prices can move before you get on, so check the board at your bookmaker. Bet what you can afford to lose. If betting stops being fun, take a break.
