For the third time this postseason Dallas lost the first game of a series in overtime, but the Stars bounced back to win the first two playoff series against Minnesota and Seattle. So the Stars are in a familiar spot after losing 4-3 in Game 1 on Friday night after tying the game with about two minutes left in regulation and Jake Oettinger stopped 33 of 37 shots. Dallas still has won seven of the past 10 meetings and this was its first loss in four games against Vegas this season. Dallas is 17-5 playing with one day of rest and the Stars have won 13 of their past 19 road games. The underdog has won six of the past eight meetings. Vegas beat Edmonton 6-4 in Game 1 and then went out and got routed 5-1 at home in Game 2. Take the Stars as a Max Play.
