The Penguins still own a five-game home win streak and are 4-1-0 all-time there against Columbus. The Blue Jackets will make their first visit to the Consol Energy Center with some momentum. Steve Mason made 34 saves in Friday’s 3-0 win at Detroit and Kristian Huselius had two goals and an assist in Saturday’s 4-3 comeback victory over Edmonton. Huselius was a healthy scratch against the Red Wings. Mason is 1-1-1 with a 4.12 GAA in three career starts against the Penguins - all at home. Mathieu Garon has yet to start against Pittsburgh since his brief stint with the team during its 2008-09 championship season.
The Penguins boast the league’s top penalty-kill unit at 88.9 percent, with opponents 0 for 17 during this home win streak. The Blue Jackets are 0 for 11 on the power play in their last three games and are at 13.3 percent for one of the NHL’s worst marks. Pittsburgh remains without Sidney Crosby and Evgeni Malkin. Crosby, second in the Eastern Conference with 66 points, is out with a concussion and his return date is uncertain. A busy week figures to test how the Pittsburgh Penguins will fare without their superstar centers. They’ll play the first of four games in six days Tuesday night when they host the Columbus Blue Jackets, who are in search of a third straight victory.
