Dallas at Arizona

Phoenix is very good at home (8-5-1) and faces a Dallas defense that is in the middle of the pack, ranking No 15 in goals allowed. Dallas has been on the road a lot, playing their 12th road game over the last 19 games here. The Stars are 1-4 in their last five against a team with a losing record. This is the fifth home game over the last six contests for Phoenix, and the Coyotes are 8-2 in their last 10 games when playing on one day of rest. Phoenix is off a one-sided loss, but is a terrific bounce-back team, with the Coyotes are 21-8 following a home loss of 3 or more goals. Home ice has dominated this series with Phoenix winning the last game played here, a 2-0 win as Mike Smith registered the first of his three shutouts this season. The home team is 5-0 in the last five meetings and the Stars are 1-4 in the last five meetings in Phoenix. Play Phoenix.
