Series getting tight….and if you look at each team, they are not as high flying as they appear. 2/8 games have gone over this total….let’s play under

Apparently, there's no place like the road for the Stars, who won for the sixth time in seven games away from Big D when stealing Game 3 at Edmonton. After posting an NHL-best 25-10-6 mark as a visitor in the regular season, the playoff successes mean Dallas is now 32-11-6 as a visitor this season, and a main reason the road teams have won more than the home teams in these playoffs.Jason Robertson getting unlocked in Game 3 was a big development for Dallas, getting benefit from the return of fellow lineman Roope Hintz, whose presence seems to benefit Robertson greatly. Jake Oettinger's edge in goal over Stuart Skinner is becoming more pronounced in the Stars' favor as well. Play Stars on Money Line

Edmonton feels like it's due a break or two. The Oilers are 0-4 in this year’s playoffs when tied after two periods after going 13-4-2 when tied after two periods in the regular season. They also are 0-for-5 vs. Dallas on the power play and 1-for-16 dating back to the series against the Canucks. Teams generally get more PP chances at home.

The Edmonton Oilers have a 3-0 record after losing two consecutive games since February. They have not lost three games in a row since last December. They were undefeated in January, going 11-0. On Monday, despite out-shooting the Stars 30-22 and out-hitting them 45-22, Edmonton lost by two goals, including an empty-net goal. These teams are evenly matched, and neither team will win three games in a row. Edmonton should be highly focused on winning and tying up the series. I think the Oilers will perform well at home after a previous home loss.
