This is the first meeting this season, and Dallas has won six of the past eight games against the Canadiens, who are playing a back-to-back after going overtime to defeat Washington 3-2 last night. Rookie Jakub Dobes had another strong outing, stopping 15 of 17 shots for Montreal, who likely will go with Samuel Montembeault tonight, and he has a 3.05 goals-against average. Jake Oettinger is 20-9-1 with a 2.49 GAA and a .908 save percentage for the Stars, who have won six in a row, including 4-1 over Philadelphia on Thursday night. Dallas has allowed only 2.0 goals per game during the streak, and they have won their past four road games. The Stars are 12-6 UNDER their past 18 games and 17-2 UNDER their past 19 Saturday games. The Canadiens have gone UNDER eight of 12 versus the Western Conference. Take the Stars and the UNDER.
