You could make a case for either side here given the way both teams are playing, and the plus money with the Kings is attractive given their recent road success. However, the Dallas Stars have been money at home and in the favorite role all season, and they’ve beaten up on the Kings in recent meetings. In fact, the Stars have won seven of the last 10 meetings against the Kings. I’ll lay the reasonable price with the home team.
