Analyzing the past few games, the Penguins have been on a winning streak. They secured a victory against the Dallas Stars with a score of 2-1, demonstrating solid defense with 35 hits and an impressive goaltending save percentage of 96 percent. Their powerplay opportunities were capitalized upon once out of three chances, indicating efficiency when they have the man advantage.


In another recent game against the Buffalo Sabres, Pittsburgh came out on top with a score of 3-1. Once again showcasing their defensive prowess with 43 hits and an even more remarkable goaltending save percentage of 97 percent. Their powerplay was effective as they scored one goal from three opportunities.


The trend continued when they played away against Buffalo Sabres in an intense game that went into overtime. The Penguins emerged victorious with four goals to three and displayed exceptional control during powerplays by scoring twice from five opportunities and maintaining a faceoff win percentage over sixty percent.


The venue for this upcoming game could play a significant role in its outcome. Amerant Bank Arena is known for its energetic atmosphere which could fuel both teams' performances but given Pittsburgh's recent form; they might be able to harness this energy effectively.


Fans should look forward to seeing if Pittsburgh can maintain their strong defensive play while taking advantage of powerplays as they have done so successfully in previous games. Goaltending will also be crucial; if it remains consistent with past performances, it could be the key factor that leads them to another win on foreign ice.


The match is scheduled for December 16th at Amerant Bank Arena in Sunrise, Florida. Fans can catch all the action on ESPN+ or SportsNet PT for local broadcasts or BSFL if you're cheering from home territory.
