2* RED WINGS/STARS OVER 5.5 (-120)

2* STARS -1.5 (+165)

Offense:
Through 2 games the Red Wings have 6 goals on 61 shots (%9.8).
Through 2 games the Stars have 3 goals on 86 shots (not a typo, %3.5 scoring rate).
~Advantage Dallas on shot volume, goals will come

Defense:
Detroit has allowed 38.5 Shots per game with %7.8 of those going in.
Dallas has allowed 25.5 shots per game with %5.9 going in.
~Advantage Dallas

Goalies:
Mrazek (Probable) - %.901 save percentage last year, making season debut
Bishop (Probable) - Stopped 19 of 19 shots this year in his game against Vegas until he took a puck to the mask and had to leave.
~Advantage Dallas on goaltender quality, and it being a home game favors Dallas

Advantage Dallas in the three categories. Backing an 0-2 home team against a 2-0 road team with a high line that tempts the public into taking Detroit.

Red Wings 2
Stars 5

you could be right on the play but the data is misleading

Good points seer. I did not factor opponents. I try to see all teams as equal to start the season or at least have less variance than the public perceives and what Vegas plays into.

Every stat is misleading because of the number of ways it can be interpreted. Omitting the above, I just see this as a Dallas win and I think they can score 4+ in this matchup and Detroit can score 2 in this matchup. I suppose I could take a page out of ‘coldweather’s book on write ups.

Also "lowly" Vegas is a bit misleading as well, if Seer is trying to be some know it all. They will be 3-0 after tonight

"Lowly" players putting a 4 spot up in the first period against a KHL team would be worthy of note

Who said I thought they would win the conference or the cup? You are the only one that who has stated an opinion on them, which was "lowly." And the "lowly" team has come in as two sizable dogs, as well as -2.5 when they opening up their new stadium. I'd call that being shortsighted

I got very lucky on this one. Empty netter with 2 seconds left. Thanks for the open discussion guys, we're all here to win money and I'm sure we can all learn from others when it comes to our handicapping capabilities.
