Pittsburgh Penguins vs San Jose Sharks Prediction, Odds and Picks for Saturday, 10/18/25

The Pittsburgh Penguins complete their 3-game California road trip with a stop to take on the San Jose Sharks. After losing 2 straight games in regulation, the Penguins returned to the win column and will look to continue this against a young Sharks team who is still bidding for its first win of the season. We are here to provide an expert Penguins vs Sharks predictions for what will be great NHL action.

While San Jose is the home team, it is playing in its second game in as many nights following a 6-3 road loss to the Utah Mammoth. The Sharks will now be welcoming a Penguins team that may not have extreme expectations but is determined for a winning season as of right now. Depth has obviously taken a hit in Pittsburgh following its dominance almost 10 years ago, but the likes of Sidney Crosby, Evgeni Malkin, Erik Karlsson and Kris Letang remain on the team and are trying to lead the way. San Jose has struggled on all fronts of the game, and as the team is extremely young, it is evident that it is still trying to build chemistry and get its feet wet in the league. I’ll take the veteran-savvy Penguins, who have 3 wins in 5 games, to earn the road victory in this one.
