Dallas comes off a 7-6 win at the NY Rangers and winds up a three-game road trip. The Dallas offense is not as explosive as last year at #15 in goals scored, and #19 on the power play. Dallas has scored 6+ goals four times this season and the next game lost 2-0, 3-2 and 2-0. They are 7-3 UNDER the total after getting 5+ goals the previous game, plus 12-5 UNDER when their opponent allows two or fewer goals in their previous game. The NY Islanders are #28 on the power play, but playing some defense off a 4-0 win over Boston. Depth is a concern as left winger Andrew Ladd (upper body) and right winger Cal Clutterbuck (lower body) were each absent from practice Wednesday after missing Monday's game. And New York is 8-3 UNDER the total when their opponent scores 5+ goals in their previous game. Play the UNDER.
