Even though the Dallas Stars had a bit of a dud performance on Tuesday night at home versus the Nashville Predators, their recent run is still pretty good. They’ve won 7 of their last 10 games, and they’ve put some distance between themselves and some of the rest of the Central Division pack in the standings.
The key, of course, is to keep that momentum rolling.
They have a heavy weight bout versus a Central Division opponent ahead of them in the standings standing in their way to that goal. While St. Louis has been more pedestrian in their last 10 games than Dallas (5-4-1), they’re still pretty good at home (9-5-0 on home ice) and they have one of the best goal differentials in the division (+17).
