Best Bets

The Dallas Stars have been scoring a lot this season but they also are managing to keep their opponents from scoring. Dallas is 4-6 on the road this season why trying to cover the over. I do not think Calgary will score as they did back in Dallas and the Stars will play a might tighter game than last Friday.
