Dallas Stars Betting Preview

The Stars had a rough start to this series, as they were down 2-0 and needed a considerable change to save the series. They have since rallied with three consecutive victories and have all the momentum in the world. Their most recent victory was a 3-2 finish over the Golden Knights for Game 5.

Their offense is led by Wyatt Johnston, who delivered another standout performance with two assists in their last game. Jake Oettinger guarded the net admirably, turning away 25 of 27 shots. They just need to keep up their defensive efforts and not fall back into issues that led to seven goals conceded in their prior losses. 

With their offense ranking third during the regular season and Wyatt Johnston's postseason contributions, they have the chance of a solid start to avoid a potential Game 7. So far, they have averaged 3.00 goals a game.

Looking back at their road record during the regular season, they went 26-10-5. This shows they have a solid chance to succeed in a challenging environment.

Vegas Golden Knights Betting Preview

The Golden Knights have spiraled out of control despite only needing two more wins. They have much pressure to perform in Game 6, as they are on the verge of entirely blowing this series. While their defense has shown improvement in recent games, their offense has struggled to deliver.

They have only scored four goals in the last two games combined, meaning the team needs to step up. William Carrier provided some offense for them on Thursday, but it was not enough, as they ended up with only two goals.

In the regular season, the team ranked 12th in both offense and defense, making them a threat no matter who played. Jack Eichel has been a standout performer in the postseason, scoring three goals and four assists, while Brayden McNabb has contributed two goals and three assists.

They have been averaging 2.60 goals a game in this series. At home during the regular season, they had an appealing 27-12-2 record.
