Panthers vs Stars Prediction

Florida comes into this matchup on a three game winning streak and they have scored 13 goals during that span. The Panthers are 7-5-2 on the road this year, while the Stars are 7-5-0 at home. Dallas has alternated wins and losses over their last five games and they have been a bit inconsistent during that span. The Stars did allow eight goals to the Jets two games ago and they will have their backup goalie in, so I will take the Panthers to get the win on the road here.
