In the new year, Dallas has already managed to formalize one victory. The Stars stopped the Lindy Ruff machine, which only gained momentum - 4:2. On the eve of this event, they managed to earn a point in a duel with Minnesota - 2:3 (OT), and then on the road to defeat Chicago with a score of 5:1.
They continue to struggle to maintain their position in the cup zone. Ahead of the duel with Ottawa they are located in seventh place, having a total of 45 points. Ninth-place Vancouver has three points less, so the Stars should never relax.
OTT Senators
Ottawa was able to climb into the top-8 of the Eastern Conference, but how long will the team be able to keep a place there? In general, they show excellent hockey, with which they have every chance for the playoffs. So, at the moment they are content with the eighth position, having one point more than the lower-ranked Pittsburgh.
Ottawa ended the year 2024 on a positive note. Recall that in the last game they managed to outplay Minnesota on the road. Showing a great game in defense, the Senators conceded only one puck.
Expert Betting Tips
Bookmakers have written off Ottawa, which we do not recommend. The Senators are on a moral high right now. They have finally climbed into the cup zone, and as a result they will fight for every point to keep their place there. In our opinion, in this slot we should expect a low-scoring game. Recently, in matches involving the Senators bookmaker's total over is not broken through. The team's defense works quite well, and the offense is not doing everything. Dallas has a similar situation in general. Therefore, let's bet on the total under.
