The Stars are 5-1 in their last 6 road games and 7-1 in their last 8 overall. The Wild are 77-34 in their last 111 home games and 14-4 in their last 18 games playing on 1 days rest. The over is 4-0 in Stars last 4 road games. The under is 19-6-2 in Wild last 27 home games. The under is 4-1 in the last 5 meetings. The over is 11-5-3 in the last 19 meetings in Minnesota.

The Dallas Stars are playing some of their best hockey of the season, and they’ve been road warriors to close out the regular season. A game 2 blowout win is also encouraging for the Stars. With all that said, the Wild have been a buzz saw at home dating back to last season, and that includes just 7 losses since January 10. Filip Gustavsson has a 92.9 percent save percentage at home this season. Give me the Wild and the heap price.
