Dallas Stars vs Columbus Blue Jackets Prediction

The Blue Jackets are going through a rough month and a blowout win over the Blackhawks doesn’t move the needle much. The Blue Jackets have been great at home this season with an 18-6-4 record, but their recent stretch makes you overlook that. The Dallas Stars are just consistent no matter where they play and they’ve benefited impressive during this winning streak, which has come on the road. The Stars beat the Blue Jackets 5-3 earlier this month and have won eight of the last 10 games against them overall. Give me the Stars and I’ll lay the PL to shave down the juice.
