Tampa Bay at Dallas

The Tampa Bay Lightning are off to a strong start and certainly will be in the hunt for a repeat come playoff time. The Lightning offensive attack has been quite difficult to stop. Tampa Bay has scored three goals or more in 10 of their last 12 contests where they have averaged 3.8. It will be a tall order for the Dallas offense to keep pace here as the Stars have scored more than three goals in a game just twice over their last 11 games. The Lightning has also dominated this series as they have taken six of the last seven meetings vs. the Stars, including four straight in Dallas. The Stars have not scored against the Lightning in three straight contests. Make the play on Tampa Bay.
