Dallas has won the past four meetings, including a 2-1 shootout in the only meeting this season back in October. The Stars have won two straight after defeating Ottawa 5-4 on Friday night when Miro Heiskanen and Matt Duchene scored 44 seconds apart in the third period and the Stars overcame a 4-2 deficit. Goalie Jake Oettinger was injured in the first period and relieved by Scott Wedgewood, who stopped 25 shots and he is probable for this game. Wedgewood is 6-1-1 this season. St. Louis won in interim coach Drew Bannister's coaching debut 4-2 over Ottawa on Thursday, but the Blues had lost four in a row and five of their previous six games before that victory. Dallas has won nine of 13 road games and the Blues are 7-20 against Central Division foes. Take the Stars.
