Trends

Dallas is 4-0 in their last 4 games against the Central and 1-4 in their last 5 Friday games. The over is 6-2 in Dallas’ last 8 road games. Arizona is 6-2 in their last 8 home games and 6-18 in their last 24 Friday games. The over is 4-1-1 in Arizona’s last 6 home games. The home team is 24-9 in these two teams last 33 head to head meetings. 

Pick

Dallas comes into this game after alternating wins and losses over their last five games, while Arizona has lost five games in a row. Dallas is currently tied for second place in the Central Division and is three points behind the Wild for first place. Dallas has been very good on both ends of the ice this season and they are 22-10-5 on the road. Arizona has played much better on home ice this season than they have on the road, with a record of 20-12-4. I like Arizona to keep this game close and I am taking them +1.5 here.
