Stars Stand Out on the Puck Line

Back the Stars -1.5 on the puck line against the Predators. The 1.84 for our prediction looks great value and we need the favorites to win by two goals or more.

Stars Have Won 7 Out of 10 on the H2H

Nashville Predators have been defeated in their previous four games. On the road, they recently suffered a 8-4 loss against Columbus Blue Jackets at Nationwide Arena. Filip Forsberg was one of four different players on the scoresheet.

Dallas Stars got a sixth straight win in their last game. It was a 3-1 road triumph at Climate Pledge Arena when meeting Seattle Kraken. Mikael Granlund, Matt Duchene and Wyatt Johnston scored one goal apiece. Goalie Casey DeSmith produced a great performance and had 35 saves (.972).

The Predators triumphed 4-1 when they last played the Stars. This head-to-head was played at American Airlines Center. We’ve seen seven the Stars wins in the past 10 meetings between the teams.
