Dallas Stars vs Montreal Canadiens prediction

The Dallas Stars are playing some great hockey entering this contest, and they've won 6 of their last 9 games against the Habs, games where they had a field day offensively. The Stars have also been road warriors all year where they're 15-6-4 on the season. The Montreal Canadiens continue to have issues stringing together wins, and home ice hasn't helped them much this season. It's hard to find confidence to get behind the Habs in this spot with the way the Stars are playing. Give me the Stars and the PL for max betting value, as they play some of their best hockey on the road.
