Jets vs Stars Prediction

I’m on the Stars here. I like this Winnipeg team and think they’ll be a tough out in the playoffs, but right now, Dallas looks like a team on a mission. A win here all but locks up the Stars the Central division crown, while Winnipeg could use the win to get home ice against Colorado which is big as well, but Dallas has owned the recent head-to-head meetings between these two teams and at home I think they have the edge here. Give me Dallas.
