Dallas Stars vs Minnesota Wild Prediction

The Wild are a good enough team to take a shot with in the plus money role at home. The problem is, the Stars have been sharper and more consistent across the board. I’m not excited to step in front of the Stars, especially when they’ve won 8 of the last 10 games against the Wild. Seven of those eight wins were decided by two or more goals. It hasn’t been pretty for the Wild in recent meetings. The Stars have earned points in 11 straight games, making a case for the best team in the league. The price isn’t too crazy. I have to keep siding with the Stars until the tickets stop cashing.
