Head-to-Head & Recent Form
The Stars are the hottest team in the NHL, fresh off a 6-1 dominant victory over the Vancouver Canucks on Monday night. Dallas boasts the league’s third-best scoring defence, allowing only 2.7 goals per game. Conversely, the Flames are coming off a disappointing 2-0 shutout loss to the Los Angeles Kings and have struggled to find consistency at home (15-10-4).
- Season Series: This is the second of three meetings this season. Calgary previously bested Dallas earlier in the campaign, but the Stars have gone 5-3-2 against the Flames over the last three years.
- Dallas Streak: A win tonight would mark 10 consecutive victories, further cementing their new franchise record.
- Calgary Outlook: With only 23 games remaining, the Flames are “playing out the string,” according to local analysts, as they sit 11 points back of the final playoff seed.
Projected Lineups
Dallas Stars: The top line of Jason Robertson, Wyatt Johnston, and Mavrik Bourque remains intact after a multi-point night in Vancouver. Jake Oettinger is expected to start in net as the Stars look to sweep their quick Western Canada road trip.
Calgary Flames: Matt Coronato has been a bright spot for the Flames recently, testing netminders frequently despite the team’s lack of scoring. The Flames are expected to lean on their “Black C” alternate jerseys tonight, a kit in which they hold a perfect 3-0-0 record this season.
Betting Odds
According to major sportsbooks, the Stars enter the contest as heavy favourites (-185) given their current momentum. The Over/Under is set at 6.0 goals, reflecting Dallas’s high-octane offence and Calgary’s recent defensive lapses.
