The set-up: Consider laying the 1.5 goals for the "plus-money" return on the Stars in this one. Chicago has won two of its last three, but it's still only averaging 2.69 GPG. The Blackhawks' strength in the early going has been on the defensive end of the ice where they are allowing 2.81 GPG.

The pick: Dallas though has won all four of its home games this year, anchored by one of the best offenses in the league that averages 3.8 GPG. Not to be outdone though, the Stars are also one of the best defensive clubs this season by allowing only 2.6 GPG. Chicago is just 1-4 in its last five following a win and I think it'll struggle on the road in this difficult venue. I think Dallas will not only win this game at home, but win by a significant margin.
