This is a 10* on the OVER

After treating us as our Game of the Month play on Thursday (beat Winnipeg 5-3), we thought we'd call on Dallas again, this time for our top Total of the Week. The Stars have simply been on fire of late. They've gone 12-1-1 the last 14 games and won five straight. In this five game run, the last four have also gone Over. Dallas is averaging 4.6 goals its last five games and has scored at least four in 8 of the last 14. Saturday's opponent is Chicago, a team that was scoring quite a bit during a recent four-game win streak. The Blackhawks totaled 21 goals in those four games, but have since dropped two in a row. In both losses, they allowed four goals. One reason Dallas should be licking its chops here is that Chicago gives up lots of shots. The number of shots is quite staggering. 36.8 per game for the year. 39.2 on the road. 41.7 in division games. The Stars will take advantage of that, but don't be surprised if they give up a few. The Over is 3-1-1 the last five meetings. Play OVER Chicago-Dallas
