First-place Dallas has won five in a row, ranked second in goals scored and on the power play, plus seventh in goals allowed. The Stars are 6-1 at home and 21-5 against the Eastern Conference. Dallas is also well rested, and the Stars are 7-0 when playing on two days of rest. Dallas has plenty of offense and now adds a much improved defense, on a 4-0 run UNDER the total, and 6-0 UNDER against the Eastern Conference. Ottawa is in town at just 2-6 in against the Central Division. Ottawa goalie Craig Anderson followed up a 25-save shutout Thursday against Columbus with 36 stops in Saturday's 3-0 victory over Philadelphia, capping a 3-0-2 residency for Ottawa in which he posted a 1.22 goals-against average in four starts. Ottawa is 4-1 UNDER the total on the road, as well as a 4-1 run UNDER overall. However, the Ottawa defense allows a league-high 34.3 shots per game and that will be a problem against this speedy Dallas offense. Ottawa is also 0-7 against Dallas, including 0-4 in this rink. Take Dallas and the UNDER.
