Stars vs Red Wings: Is there hope for Ottawa?
The Detroit Red Wings are hosting the Dallas Stars on Tuesday night at Little Caesars Arena.
Dallas is targeting the top seed in the West
The Dallas Stars are fourth in the Western Conference with a 27-13-6 record. They have won 5 of the last 8 games but are coming off a 3-2 overtime loss to the New York Islanders. The Stars are the third-best scoring team in the NHL, with 3.63 goals per game. On the defensive end, they are 15th in the league, allowing 3.02 goals per game. Jason Robertson leads the Stars with 48 points, and Roope Hintz has the most goals, 20.
The Red Wings are hoping for a playoff berth
The Detroit Red Wings are hoping to end their six-year playoff drought, and things are looking promising at the midpoint of the season. Detroit is currently seventh in the Eastern Conference with a 24-17-5 record. They have won 7 of the last 10 games and are coming off a 2-1 win over the Tampa Bay Lightning. Detroit is sixth in the league, scoring 3.48 goals per game, and 22nd, allowing 3.28 goals per game. Dylan Larkin leads the Red Wings with 42 points this season.
Betting Trends
Dallas has won the last 6 games against the Red Wings and 4 of the last 6 on the road in Detroit. The Stars are also 4-2 SU in the last six games played on Tuesday. Detroit is 7-13 SU in the last 20 games against teams from the Central Division.
Prediction and Conclusion
Both Dallas and Detroit are playing pretty well lately, and their confidence is to the roof. The Red Wings have a couple of guys playing on top of the game, and their defense was excellent in the last game against the Lightning. The Stars have the third-best road record in the West and have been very successful when visiting Detroit in the last couple of seasons. Dallas is finishing their four-game road trip with a stop in Detroit, and with the Red Wings being without Ville Husso, and Patrick Kane, the Stars will steal another win in Motown.
