Dallas plays its second straight game on the road after a 2-1 loss at Tampa Bay, where it was outshot 33-21. They've lost five of eight. The offense has tallied two goals in the last two games, slipping to 25th in goals scored and shooting percentage, while the defense ranks 25th in penalty killing. While Dallas is working on one day of rest, Florida has had three days off. Florida is 4-1-1 at home and plays its fourth consecutive home contest. The defense is seventh in the NHL in goals allowed (2.73 per game), so back home ice. Play Florida.
