Game outlook

Dallas is on the road playing Nashville at the Bridgestone Arena stadium on Tuesday, 12/27/2022 @ 8:00pm EST. Dallas -127 was the opening favorite and current line is Dallas -130.

On Tuesday night, the Dallas Stars (20-9-6) will attempt to win their second consecutive game against the Nashville Predators (14-16-5). The Stars defeated Montreal 4-2 last night. In their last game, the Predators lost to Colorado 3-2.

The Stars are aiming for their fifth win in seven games

With a win over the Canadiens in their last game, the Stars bounced back from their loss to the Oilers. By beating the Predators, they will gain their fifth win in their previous seven games. The Dallas Mavericks average 3.54 goals per game. In their last game, they scored four goals on 36 shots.

The Stars were led by Roope Hintz, who scored two goals. Joel Kiviranta and Wyatt Johnston each scored a goal, while Jason Robertson had two assists. In addition to playing well defensively, Dallas has given up 2.77 goals per game. Last time they lost by two goals, and they'll need a similar performance to win. The 22 shots that Jake Oettinger faced were saved by him. His record is 14-5-3 in 25 games with a 2.45 GAA and a .919 save percentage.

The Predators are looking for their third win in four games

In their last game, the Predators' two-game winning streak was snapped by the Avalanche. With a win over the Stars, they will get their third win in their last four games. The Nashville Predators average 2.47 goals per game. In their last game, they scored two goals on 39 shots.

For the Predators, Matt Duchene and Ryan Johansen each scored a goal, while Roman Josi and Nino Niederreiter picked up an assist. Despite giving up 2.88 goals per game, Nashville has played well defensively. It will be tough for them to win this game if they gave up three goals in their last game. The 43 shots Juuse Saros faced were saved by him. In 25 games, he is 11-9-5 with a 2.81 GAA and a .914 save percentage.

The Stars have won four of their last six games and three of their last four on the road. It has been a successful offensive season for them, even on the road where they've scored 12 goals in the last four games. Additionally, they have performed well on special teams, converting over 27 percent of their power play opportunities. As a team, the Predators usually play well defensively. However, they have struggled in recent games, especially at home where they have allowed 12 goals in three games. Therefore, they should have difficulty slowing down the Stars. During the last nine games, the Predators have lost seven and lost three of their four home games. In their last three games, they have scored ten goals despite their slump. A mere 16 percent of their power play opportunities have been converted on special teams. With Dallas doing a good job of killing penalties and holding opponents under three goals per game, expect them to struggle offensively. For the money line.

Dallas Highlights

With a power ranking of 15, Dallas is ranked #5 in offense (scoring an average of 3.56 per game), #9 in defense (allowing an average of 2.85 points to be scored against them per game) and are 20-9-6 this season.

Nashville Highlights

Nashville Predators has a power ranking of 26 and are #29 for offense (scoring an average of 2.58 per game), #15 for defense (giving up an average of 2.85 points per game) and 4-3 overall. Dallas went 1-2-0 in their last 3 matchups against Nashville.
