If you are looking to catch tonight’s late-season NHL action, you won’t want to miss the Pittsburgh Penguins taking on the St. Louis Blues. With the 2025-26 NHL regular season winding down, both teams are navigating the final stretch with varying motivations. Whether you are tuning in from the United States or Canada, here is exactly how to catch the puck drop on Tuesday, April 14, 2026, along with a full game preview.
How to Watch the Penguins vs. Blues: TV Channels and Streaming Options
Game Time: 9:30 PM ET / 8:30 PM CT
Location: Enterprise Center, St. Louis, MO
USA TV Channel: ESPN
Canada TV Channel: Sportsnet (and streaming on Sportsnet+)
Live Stream (USA): Fubo (free trial available), ESPN+ or the ESPN app (with cable login).
For those streaming the game, it is important to understand regional blackouts. NHL regional blackouts occur when a local regional sports network (RSN) holds the exclusive broadcasting rights to a game in a specific home market. If you live in the local broadcast territory of the Penguins or Blues, streaming services like ESPN+ or NHL.tv will “black out” the game to protect the local network’s viewership. However, because tonight’s game is an exclusive national broadcast on ESPN in the US, standard local blackouts usually won’t apply, meaning fans nationwide can enjoy the game on ESPN without restriction!
2025-26 Team Records, Leading Scorers, and Injury Updates
The Pittsburgh Penguins come into tonight’s game with a solid 41-24-16 record, sitting comfortably near the top of the Metropolitan Division. They are coming off a tough 3-0 loss to the Washington Capitals on April 12. Offensively, they’ve been paced by Sidney Crosby, who leads the team with 74 points (29 goals, 45 assists), while Anthony Mantha has been the primary finisher with 32 goals, and Erik Karlsson has racked up 66 points.
However, injuries are a major storyline for Pittsburgh. The Penguins rested a plethora of stars in their last game, and key players like Sidney Crosby (lower-body), Evgeni Malkin (upper-body), Erik Karlsson (lower-body), and Kris Letang (upper-body) are all listed as day-to-day.
The St. Louis Blues hold a 35-33-12 record and are fighting hard for pride after a rocky Central Division campaign. They enter tonight with momentum, coming off a 5-3 victory over the Chicago Blackhawks. Robert Thomas has been the engine for St. Louis all year, leading the team across the board with 22 goals, 37 assists, and 59 total points.
Betting Odds, Predictions, and My Personal Insight
If you are looking to lay some action on tonight’s contest, the betting odds currently have the Blues as the home favorites at -135 on the moneyline, with the Over/Under set at 6.5 goals.
From my personal perspective, I am heavily leaning towards taking the Under on 6.5 goals tonight. With the Penguins dealing with a massive injury bug to their top stars—including Crosby, Malkin, and Karlsson—Pittsburgh’s high-flying offense is severely depleted. The Blues aren’t exactly an offensive juggernaut themselves, averaging just 2.68 goals per game this season. My official game score prediction is a tight, defensive 3-2 victory for the St. Louis Blues.
