Why Dallas Stars are a good bet +135?
Dallas doesn’t have a winning road record at only 10-13-2-0, but they’ve been on a massive tear lately. The Stars head to Nashville with a terrific 5 straight wins.
One of the victories was only 5 days ago versus the Predators. As a +155 dog, Dallas beat the Preds 3-1 in Nashville. Everything seems to be coming together for the Stars at the right time. If the Stars could beat Nashville on the road 5 days ago, they can beat Nashville on the road on Thursday.

Why Nashville Predators are a good bet -165?
The Predators did lose to 1-3 to Dallas on Feb. 2, but things could go differently for Nashville on Feb. 7. The Preds had won 3 straight before the Star surprised them this past Saturday. Nashville took Wednesday off after beating the Coyotes 5-2 on Tuesday night.
The Predators are an excellent 17-10-0-0 at home. They should exact revenge over the Stars especially since they got a win after losing to Dallas on Feb. 2.
