Definitely tempting to play Stars +1.5 at the same price, but yep I worry about that Avalanche empty-netter with 10 seconds left in regulation and Dallas down a goal. Stars netminder Jake Oettinger is one of the best in the league but had pretty mediocre road RS splits at 12-11-3 with a 3.16 GAA. Oettinger also has had his problems in Denver in the past. Counterpart Mackenzie Blackwood was fairly better at home after being traded from San Jose. And captain Gabriel Landeskog is expected to play his first game since June 2022 for Colorado, so that should be an emotional boost in front of the home crowd.
