This is an 8* on DALLAS

The Blackhawks have been a bit of a “thorn in our side” recently as they’ve recorded upset wins over Carolina and Dallas in recent days. Both times we were on the other side. But we get a second chance here with the Stars, who had not lost on home ice before facing Chicago on Sunday. They’d gone 4-0, sweeping Nashville and Detroit, and against each opponent they had a 7-goal game. Chicago had not won on the road before Sunday, losing all six times by an average of 2.2 goals/game. The game on Sunday went to overtime with the Blackhawks’ lone regulation goal coming on a power play. Just can’t see Dallas losing twice at home to such a lowly opponent. Play on DALLAS
