Dallas won the division last season and had a +64 goal differential, the best in the West. They also had the best road record (26-10-5) in the NHL. They are loaded again on a team that was third in goals scored and eighth in goals allowed. Dallas has won five of its last six road games. Nashville crept into the playoffs last year as a Wild Card and was eliminated in the first round by Vancouver in six games. The defense was 15th in goals allowed. Dallas holds a 6-2 edge in the past eight games of this series, including a 9-2 win when they last met in February. Play Dallas to grab another win.
