The Minnesota Wild have recorded points in eight straight games and can complete a home-and-home sweep of the struggling Dallas Stars on Saturday at American Airlines Center. The UNDER is trending when the Stars play at home, evidenced by the UNDER going 6-0 in Dallas’ last six in the Lone Star state.
Sportsbook opened the Wild as slight -110 road faves with a total of 5.5.
Minnesota is 4-0-3 SU over the span and is in a great position to record a sixth straight postseason appearance. Goaltender Devan Dubnyk has been standing on his head of late, as the veteran has allowed two goals or fewer in seven of his past 10 outings and owns a 21-6-5 SU mark since coming back to action from a lower-body injury in late December.
Dallas’ playoff hopes have been spiraling of late, as the team is on a 1-7-2 SU run in its past 10 tilts. With only four games remaining on the schedule, every game is a must-win from here on out for the Stars. Captain Jamie Benn has been doing his part, however, as the winger has 10 points in his past nine games.
Minnesota has dominated this series in recent meetings, as the Wild are 5-1 SU in their previous six against the Stars.
