Dallas Stars at Minnesota Wild Preview & Picks – Dallas To Back Up NHL Playoffs Victory

Dallas Stars at Minnesota Wild Preview & Picks

Dallas are tipped to build on their Game 2 win.

The Stars have been on a good run of form on the road, while Minnesota’s home form has been underwhelming.

  • Dallas Stars are 10-3 in their last 13 road games
  • Minnesota Wild are 4-4 in their last 8 home games
  • The Over has cashed in 10 of Dallas’ last 12 road games
  • The Over has hit in 4 of Minnesota’s last 7 home games (1 push)

Head To Head

  • The regular season series was tied 2-2
  • This NHL Playoffs series is tied 1-1
  • Dallas Stars won 7-3 when the teams last met on April 19

Dallas Stars Form

Dallas head to Minnesota in good form, having levelled the series with their seventh win in eight games.

The Stars lost 5-2 in Colorado at the start of April, but responded to that loss with a run of six consecutive victories.

They returned home to beat Nashville 5-1, Philadelphia 4-1, and Vegas via a shootout, before heading out on the road once again for a 6-1 win in Detroit and a 5-2 victory at St Louis.

Dallas downed the Blues again in their regular season finale, 1-0, but were unable to keep their streak going as they lost 3-2 in double overtime in Game 1 of this playoff series with Minnesota.

The Stars responded in impressive fashion on Wednesday night though, cruising to a 7-3 victory in Game 2.

Minnesota Wild Form

Minnesota head home looking to bounce back from their sixth defeat in their last nine games.

The Wild stumbled through the final few weeks of the season as they lost three straight games to start April, losing twice to Vegas and once in Pittsburgh.

They briefly halted the slump with a 5-3 win over St Louis and a 4-2 victory in Chicago, but they closed out the regular season with a 3-1 loss to Winnipeg and a 4-3 overtime defeat in Nashville.

Minnesota snapped that losing sequence as they made an ideal start to this playoff series, winning 3-2 in double overtime in Dallas.

The Wild were unable to follow up that win though, losing 7-3 in Game 2 of the series.
