San Jose at Dallas

The San Jose Sharks head to Big D tonight to square off with the Dallas Stars. The Sharks are a respectable 14-13-5 on the road for the season, and overall they have pretty much matched the Stars results for the entire season. The Sharks have lost 9 of their last 11 while Dallas has won seven of their last eight. So why San Jose in this one? There has been one glaring weakness in Dallas under Coach Guutzan. The Stars have performed miserably vs. teams that average three more shots per game than their opponent, which is the case with San Jose. The Stars are 1-13 under his watch in this situation, getting beaten on average by 1.8 goals per contest. Play on San Jose.
