#53/54 ASA TOP PLAY ON 10* OVER 6.5 Goals - Ottawa Senators at Dallas Stars, Friday at 8:07 PM ET - Great set-up for an over here. Ottawa is coming off a 4-2 loss at St Louis last night and the back to back is going to stress the goalie situation for the Senators. The Stars are a high-scoring team and the Senators defense and netminding will be pushed to the limit here. Dallas has seen 11 of the last 14 games total at least 7 goals. This is not like the Dallas teams of old that played tight defensive-minded hockey. Instead, the Stars have become a more wide-open free-flowing team and the goal-scoring has picked up as a result. Dallas has averaged scoring 4 goals per game in the last 14 games. The issue for the Stars is that the goal-tending work of Jake Oettinger has really tailed off since he had a strong start to the season. Oettinger has allowed at least 3 goals in each of his last 4 games. The Senators are a solid scoring club and will be ready to go strong here after the disappointing result at St Louis last night in which the Blues were ready to respond after firing their head coach. The Senators had averaged 4 goals scored per game in their 4 games prior to the tough result at St Louis last night. They should enjoy success against a Stars club that has allowed 22 goals in the last 5 matches! This is not only a non-divisional but also non-conference match-up and that also lends itself to a more free-flowing affair. Based on the recent trending for each club, we can't see either team finishing with less than 3 goals in this one given the above and this would translate to at least a 4-3 final. Over is our play here
