The San Jose Sharks put their solid 10-3-1 home record on the line Thursday when they host Dallas. The Stars had won four straight, but they dropped a 2-4 decision at Vegas on Sunday. The reason the line is so high at Sharks -200 is because the Stars also play this game on a B2B after visiting Anaheim on Wednesday.
Dallas Stars
The Stars are a tough bet on Thursday mostly due to the fact they’ve played so many road games lately. The matchup at San Jose is the 7th time in the last 9 games Dallas in playing away. The Stars are 6-8-2 away from the American Airlines Center.

Dallas struggles a bit putting the puck in the net (24th in goals, 23rd in SOG) but it’s their defense that gives them at least a fighting chance in this matchup. The Stars are a top 3 team in goals against and G Ben Bishop had been solid with five games of 2 goals or less allowed.
San Jose Sharks
The Sharks are in a great spot to get their 5th win in 6 starts mostly due to the facts that a) they’re at home and b) they’re fresh. While Dallas is playing in a B2B, San Jose has had 2 nights off since their win over the Devils. The Sharks have netted 5+ in 3 of the last 4 and get plenty of chances ranking 3rd in the league in SOG.

Having 2 days rest is a huge asset for the Sharks as they send a healthy Martin Jones to net. Jones has been kind of up-and-down with a 3-3-2 record over his last 8 but he’s allowed 2 or less in 3 of the last 4.
NHL Betting Trends:

Free Dallas Stars vs. San Jose Sharks NHL Prediction:
All things being equal this would have been a very solid matchup. The fact that the Stars have to play in back-to-back road games shifts the advantage more towards San Jose, who were probably the play anyways at home.
