The Line: Betting Odds: St. Louis +1.5 — Over/Under: +5.5
The Dallas Stars and St. Louis Blues meet Saturday in NHL action at Enterprise Center. Here’s a Dallas Stars vs St. Louis Blues Prediction. This article will include a Dallas Stars vs St. Louis Blues Pick.
The Dallas Stars beat the Wild, lost to the Canucks, and they play the Blue Jackets next. The Stars have lost 8 of their last 11 regular season games.
The Dallas Stars are averaging 4.25 goals per game and are scoring on 38.5 percent of their power play opportunities. Wyatt Johnston leads Dallas with 4 goals, Roope Hintz has 5 assists and Jason Robertson has 21 shots on goal. Defensively, the Dallas Stars are allowing 3.75 goals per game and are killing 68.8 percent of their opponent’s power plays. Jake Oettinger has allowed 10 goals on 105 shots faced, while Casey DeSmith has given up 5 goals on 26 shots.
The St. Louis Blues beat the Canucks, lost to the Blackhawks, and they play the Kings next. The Blues have split their last 10 regular season games.
The St. Louis Blues are averaging 3 goals per game and are scoring on 18.2 percent of their power play opportunities. Jake Neighbours leads St. Louis with 4 goals, Paven Buchnevich has 3 assists, and Colton Parayko has 11 shots on goal. Defensively, the St. Louis Blues are allowing 4.25 goals per game and are killing 76.9 percent of their opponent’s power plays. Jordan Binnington has allowed 8 goals on 57 shots faced, and Joel Hofer has given up 9 goals on 51 shots.
The Blues as home dogs is attractive, but they’ve been hit or miss through four games, and their defense has been awful in losing efforts. The Stars are not only playing the better hockey, but they’re the more trustworthy team overall, and they’ve won 8 of the last 10 games against the Blues. The Blues usually have issues finding the back of the net when they run into the Stars. I’ll side with the Stars and the reasonable price on the road.
