San Jose Sharks vs Pittsburgh Penguins Prediction & Picks, November 11, 2026

The odds for the Pittsburgh Penguins to win against the San Jose Sharks are set at -130, which makes this a pretty interesting bet. Our numbers suggest this matchup is very close, like a coin flip. The Sharks have only won 3 of their last 10 games, and while they do a good job blocking shots and landing hits, they haven't shown enough consistency to feel confident in their chances. Pittsburgh has some players who might be new to the team, but they still have a strong lineup overall. The Sharks' struggles make it hard to trust them, especially since they have been up and down lately. The biggest risk here is how close the two teams are in skill, but the Penguins have a bit more experience to help them pull through.

San Jose Sharks vs Pittsburgh Penguins: San Jose Sharks 3-Way Moneyline (+165)

The San Jose Sharks are being offered at nice odds of +165, which is great for a team that has a real chance to win. They've won three of their last ten games, and they've shown some grit with their defense, blocking an average of 14.1 shots per game. They also bring energy with 24.3 hits per game, which can really help them set the tone at home. On the other side, the Pittsburgh Penguins have struggled lately, winning only two of their last ten games. Their blocking and hitting numbers are lower than the Sharks, which could hurt them in this matchup. With the Sharks at home and the Penguins not playing their best, this bet feels like it has a solid chance, though the Penguins are still a tough opponent.

San Jose Sharks vs Pittsburgh Penguins: Pittsburgh Penguins -1.5 Puck Line (+176)

The price on the Penguins to win by at least two goals is quite tempting at +176. While both the Sharks and Penguins have struggled lately, our numbers suggest that Pittsburgh has a real chance to come out on top in this matchup. The Sharks are averaging more hits and blocking shots much like the rest of the league, but they only won 3 of their last 10 games. The Penguins are also having a tough time, winning just 2 of their last 10, but they have a solid shot at turning things around. San Jose's defense isn't the strongest, and Pittsburgh's offensive skills could take advantage of that. The main risk here is that both teams are so evenly matched that it could be a close game.

San Jose Sharks vs Pittsburgh Penguins: Michael Misa Under 1.5 Shots on Goal (-114)

Michael Misa has a tough matchup against the Pittsburgh Penguins, who have been pretty solid defensively. The Penguins block an average of 12.3 shots a game, which is lower than the league average but still shows they can get in the way. On top of that, the Sharks have only won 3 of their last 10 games, which means they might struggle to create chances. With both teams not hitting their scoring stride lately, betting on Misa to have under 1.5 shots on goal feels like a smart move. The Sharks block a lot of shots and have landed more hits than the Penguins, so they could limit Misa's opportunities. It's a close matchup, but the numbers point towards this bet being a good choice.

San Jose Sharks vs Pittsburgh Penguins: Kiefer Sherwood Over 1.5 Shots on Goal (-120)

Kiefer Sherwood is set to hit the ice for the San Jose Sharks, and the odds of him getting over 1.5 shots on goal look solid at -120. The Sharks have been active this season, blocking a lot of shots, which means they're often in the action. Sherwood has a good chance to find opportunities, especially since his team is landing plenty of hits, averaging around 24 per game. On the flip side, the Pittsburgh Penguins haven't been as strong lately, winning only 2 of their last 10 games. Their shot-blocking average is lower than the league average, which could give Sherwood more chances to shoot. The most concrete risk here is that both teams have struggled to win lately, making it tough to predict performance.

San Jose Sharks vs Pittsburgh Penguins: Evgeni Malkin Over 1.5 Shots on Goal (-169)

Evgeni Malkin is a top player for the Pittsburgh Penguins, and he's been getting plenty of chances to shoot. The Sharks have been allowing a decent number of shots, and Malkin has a good chance to get over 1.5 shots on goal in this matchup. The Penguins have struggled recently, winning only 2 of their last 10 games, so they'll need to rely on their stars, like Malkin, to step up. The Sharks are known for blocking shots and landing hits, which shows they can be tough to play against. Malkin's ability to find space and take shots makes this bet look promising. Just keep in mind that both teams are having a rough patch, so there's a real chance he could come up short if the Sharks play solid defense.
