The NHL playoffs are back on the schedule today as the Dallas Stars will clash with the St. Louis Blues.
The Blues are heading into this game after a solid win in game six with a score of 4-1. Therefore, this will be game 7 of this exciting tie.
Dallas Stars Form
The Stars blew a good chance to progress as they lost game six with a score 4-1. Also, the Stars played in better form in front of their fans this season. However, that was not the case in the last game. Therefore, they will have to win on the road in order to progress. That will be a challenging task as their offensive game was not at the needed level in the last game.
Nevertheless, this team did well this season as this is their 3rd time to be in the postseason in the last 11 seasons.
On the offensive side of the game, the Stars score an average of 2.32 goals per game.
On the defensive side of the ice, the Stars concede an average of 2.57 goals per game.
Dallas ranks 6th in the league in power play conversions at 22.2% and 1st in penalty kill at 94.3%.
St. Louis Blues Form
The Blues were one of the better teams in the second half of the season. Moreover, they managed to pull a big surprise as they eliminated the Jets in the previous round. Also, their last game against the Stars was to live or let die. However, they showed desire, resilience and character as they managed to win and to take this tie to a 7th game. If they are able to achieve this, it will be the first time that they are in the Conference finals after the 2015-16 season. Therefore, this is their chance for a historic success.
On the offensive side of the game, the Blues score an average of 3.11 goals per game.
On the defensive side of the ice, the Blues concede an average of 2.98 goals per game.
Prediction
This can a tricky game for betting as both sides have a solid chance to win. However, the Blues are a team with a better roster and expect them to show their potential in this game. Moreover, they play at home and that will be a big advantage for them. On the other side, the Stars away record is not very good this season. Therefore, I will take St. Louis to win this game and to progress in the conference finals.
