Goalie Marc-Andre Fleury is expected to start for Pittsburgh with Matt Murray recovering from a lower-body injury. Fleury has allowed six goals on 106 shots in four straight wins and has won six of his past seven decisions (6-0-1). "I think our consistency has been better," Fleury said. "I think the first few months, there had been a few ups and downs. Other than that, I think we found a way to bring our game every night." Murray, who was injured against the Carolina Hurricanes on Dec. 28, has started skating on his own but has not resumed practicing. Pittsburgh will play for the first time since defeating the Montreal Canadiens 4-3 in overtime on Dec. 31. The Penguins were 12-1-2, and 9-0-1 at home, in December. They are 17-2-2 at PPG Paints Arena this season. Pittsburgh scored at least four goals in 11 of 15 December games, which can be attributed to consistent production from forwards Sidney Crosby (five goals and nine points in his past seven games; 14 goals and 26 points in his past 19), Phil Kessel (one goal and five points on a four-game point streak), Carl Hagelin (two goals and five points on a three-game point streak) and defenseman Justin Schultz (one goal and four points on a four-game point streak). "We're pleased with where we're at, for sure. (But) we're not satisfied," coach Mike Sullivan said. "We know this team has another level and we're going to push them."
