Edmonton Oilers vs Dallas Stars PredictionI’m on the Stars here. I know the Oilers have been rock solid at home this season and have been one of the NHL’s best on home ice, but I feel the Stars have the talent edge in a lot of areas on the ice, especially in goal. Edmonton has the best players on the ice in McDavid and Draisaitl, but Dallas in my eyes has a depth advantage and were one of the better road teams in the NHL as well in their own right this season. Give me Dallas in this one. |
