Dallas is tough, tops in the NHL in goals scored, and the defense has improved from last season, winning three in a row. They've allowed two goals in two of the victories during this streak, and even opened the season shutting out Pittsburgh, 3-0. The Stars are on a 6-1 run on the road, plus 13-3 against the Eastern Conference. Tyler Seguin capped his impressive three-game stretch by collecting two goals and as many assists in a 4-2 triumph over Florida on Saturday. He has also fared well versus Philadelphia, recording 18 points (eight goals, 10 assists) in 14 career encounters and four points last season as Dallas split a pair of meetings. Dallas is also 5-2 UNDER on two days of rest. Philadelphia is a .500 team and just #26 in goals scored, in the middle of the pack in goals allowed. They are also bottom 13 in specialty units. The Flyers are just 3-for-16 (18.8 percent) on the power play. Philadelphia is 2-7 after a win, 2-6 against the West, and 6-14 against a team with a winning above .600. Philadelphia is also on a 33-16-3 run UNDER the total, including 21-7-1 UNDER at home. And when these teams clash the UNDER is 15-6-1, including 8-3 UNDER at Philadelphia. Go with Dallas and the UNDER.
