Dallas at St. Louis

A talented and fast Dallas offense is in need of a win, down 2-1 in the series. The Stars are tops in the NHL in scoring with an average of 3.2 goals per contest, and fourth on the power play. Dallas has scored first in every game in this series. Even better news is that Forward Patrick Eaves is back after missing the last two games with a lower-body injury. Dallas is on a 14-6 run, including 23-10 after scoring two or fewer goals in their previous game. St. Louis is not a dominant offensive team at #15 in goals scored, preferring to focus on defense first. Dallas is a strong bounce-back team at 16-5 following a loss of three goals or more. The wagering value is for the higher-seeded Stars to win the game or lose by just one goal. Play Dallas on the puckline.
