Trends

Dallas is 35-16 in their last 51 games against a team with a losing record and 1-5 in their last 6 Wednesday games while the under is 6-1 in their last 7 games overall. San Jose is 15-36 in their last 51 home games and 16-46 in their last 62 games overall while the over is 16-3-2 in their last 21 home games.

Pick

I’m sticking with Dallas here. As much as I like a good home underdog, San Jose just isn’t a team I’m looking to back in that spot. This is a Sharks team that’s still won just four games at home all year long and the Dallas Stars are a team that’s not in the spotlight, they just quietly go about their business but are still atop the Central division. I think the Sharks are in some trouble here. Give me Dallas.
