St. Louis Blues vs Dallas Stars Prediction

The Blues continue to pile up the losses and are getting beaten over the head defensively. I doubt things improve on the road. The Stars have won 6 of the last 7 games against the Blues, which includes a 4-3 win a week ago. The Stars have righted the ship over the last week, and that offense is humming. That should continue against this St. Louis defense. This has a chance to get ugly. Give me the Stars and the PL for max betting value.
