Dallas at San Jose

Dallas has turned a corner the last two games, winning both by playing defense, off wins of 1-0 and 6-2 (the latter as a +125 dog). The offense is still a concern, despite scoring 6 goals in the last game they have still tallied a total of 12 goals the last seven games, which explains a 5-2 run UNDER the total. They take on a San Jose team that is outstanding defensively, No. 5 in the league in goals allowed. The UNDER is 19-7 in the Sharks’ last 26 against the Western Conference, 39-16-4 UNDER the total in their last 59 when their opponent scores 5 goals or more in their previous game, and on a 12-5 run UNDER the total overall. And when these teams meet the UNDER is 5-2 in the last seven meetings in San Jose. Play this one UNDER the total.
