Dallas is 0-5 in their last 5 games overall and 1-6 in their last 7 games against a team with a winning record while the under is 24-6-1 in their last 31 games overall. Vegas is 6-1 in their last 7 games overall and 5-0 in their last 5 home games while the over is 5-1-1 in their last 7 Saturday games.
Pick
I’m sticking with Vegas here. Dallas just can’t seem to get out of their own way right now as the Stars just keep having scoring issues and 1-2 goals a night will rarely get it done. Vegas is banged up, but the Golden Knights have been playing some of their best hockey as of late and they’ve really picked up their play at home. I’ll back Vegas here.
