The Stars have punched their ticket to the playoffs and are locked in to the #1 wild card spot. With just 2 games remaining on the season, does Dallas rest for the postseason making Chicago the play Friday?
The Blackhawks may be a bit amped up for this one even though it’s an essentially meaningless game. Chicago will be playing their final home contest of the year and the United Center crowd still provides an edge.
Dallas Stars
Dallas has had one of the best defenses in the league over the 2nd half of the season. 6 of the last 10 opponents being held to 2 goals or less is kind of on the high side – which tells you just how good the Stars have been defending.
Anton Khubodin will likely get the nod as Ben Bishop tries to stay fresh for the postseason. Khubodin is a quality option in net as he’s won three in a row and has held opponents to 2 goals or less in 8 of the last 9 appearances.

Their defense makes Dallas a solid ‘under’ play but so does their offense. That being said, the Stars have shown some signs of life scoring 18 goals over the last 5 games. That makes the O/U play hard to gauge for this one.
Chicago Blackhawks
Chicago has scored points in four straight games, winning two and losing in OT in the other two. It was a valiant effort for the Blackhawks to try and climb back into the postseason race after being in the basement at times before the all-star break.
Chicago was only eliminated from postseason contention on Tuesday, but they looked sharp in beating the Blues in a SO on Wednesday to cash in at +140. St. Louis was bringing it too as a win would have put them in 1st in the Central.

The Blackhawks will likely go with Corey Crawford in net in the last game in front of the home crowd on Friday. Crawford was playing pretty solid, but he’s allowed 11 goals over the last three games.

Free Dallas Stars vs. Chicago Blackhawks NHL Prediction:
There’s going to be a good energy at the United Center and the home team would like one more W in front of their own crowd on the year. Dallas essentially has nothing to play for.
