Sharks vs Stars Prediction
The Stars should be favored as they’re the obviously better team, and they’ve won 9 of the last 10 games against the Sharks. I get it. However, the Stars have been shaky at times recently, which includes losses in three of their last five games and scoring two or fewer goals in three of those games.The Sharks have been in a free fall over the last week, but they’ve still overachieved up to this point and have four road wins this season. The Stars have seen four of their five losses this season come on their home ice. We’re getting over two times our money with the Sharks, and I’m willing to take a shot in the dark.
