Utah Mammoth vs Dallas Stars Prediction

The Mammoth are due for a bounce-back performance, as they’re a playoff team, and I doubt the losses will continue much longer. The Mammoth will tighten up defensively at some point. However, I’m not stepping in front of the Stars, a team that’s lost one game since January 23. The Stars are as hot as any team in the league and are printing money at this point. Give me the Stars to keep the puck rolling, especially at this reasonable price.
