In a game featuring a couple of the league's top penalty-kill units, the Carolina Hurricanes and the Pittsburgh Penguins face off at PPG Paints Arena. This divisional matchup will get underway at 1:30 p.m. ET on Sunday, March 8, and it will be showcased live on AT&amp;T SportsNet Pittsburgh.
<h2>Carolina Hurricanes vs. Pittsburgh Penguins Odds</h2>
Playing the role of sizable favorite will be Pittsburgh (-170), while Carolina is an underdog displaying moneyline odds of +150, and the oddsmakers have set the Over/Under (O/U) at an even 6 goals. The odds for betting that total sit at -110 for the over and -110 on the under.

Pittsburgh is 39-28 straight up (SU) and has earned 2.6 units for moneyline bettors this year. That winning percentage, the third-best in the Metropolitan Division in this young season, is fairly close to the 44-38 record the team posted during the 2018-19 season campaign. Among its 67 games this season, 30 have gone under the total, while 30 have gone over and just three have pushed. The team's 23-11 SU at home this season.

With a .898 save percentage and 25.1 saves per game, Matt Murray (20-17-5) has been the top option in goal for Pittsburgh this season. Murray did just play yesterday, however, so head coach Mike Sullivan could choose to give him the day off and instead go with Tristan Jarry (20-12-12 record, .924 save percentage, 2.31 goals against average).

The Pens will continue to lean on the offensive production from Evgeni Malkin and Bryan Rust. Malkin (70 points) has tallied 22 goals and 48 assists and has recorded two or more points 21 times this year. Rust has 27 goals and 27 assists to his name and has recorded at least one point in 33 contests.

Major League Baseball was founded all the way back in 1876, but the league has obviously gone through some major changes since that time. Most of the major rules are still in place, but the way that the game is played is now much different.

There are currently 30 teams in MLB, and every team plays 162 games during the regular season. MLB games typically start at the end of March, or early April, and the World Series wraps up during the first week of November.

MLB teams are split up into leagues and divisions, but there is now more crossover games than ever before. The American League and National League now operate under the same basic rules, and that keeps things similar regardless of what league you are looking at.

Knowing the best MLB betting sites &amp; sportsbooks is also important if you plan to bet on MLB, and this article will explore that as well. By the time you are done reading this article, you should be ready to bet on baseball.
