The set-up: I think this is a great spot to pull the trigger on the under-valued underdog here. Columbus is 9-6-1 overall and 5-2-1 on the road, while Dallas is 9-6-2 overall and 6-2-1 at home. Columbus enters off a 5-4 shootout loss to the Rangers, but its already beat the Stars this year 4-1. Dallas comes in off a 5-4 OT loss to Nashville, but with four whole nights off after this before a home game against the Bruins, I think the home side gets caught "looking ahead."

The pick: Take it for what you will as well, but Dallas is just 1-5 in its last six in trying to revenge an in-season loss to an opponent in which it was held to one goal or less in. Play on Columbus.
