Dallas Stars vs. Vancouver Canucks Prediction
I’m on Dallas here. I get the case to be made for a home underdog in some spots, but the Vancouver Canucks can’t keep the puck out of the net right now and Dallas is just playing some really solid hockey across the board. Sure, the Stars took an L in their last game, but I think the Stars bounce back as they’ve been playing some pretty decent hockey on the road in recent games. Give me the Stars here.
