The only meeting this season went UNDER when Dallas won 1-0 on Oct. 28, and eight of the past 10 meetings have gone UNDER. The Stars are on a current six-game slide while averaging 2.66 goals per game. They have gone UNDER four of five against the Metropolitan Division. Casey DeSmith replaced Jake Oettinger, who allowed five goals in Tuesday's 6-3 loss to Carolina, and stopped 16 of 17 shots. DeSmith is expected to start tonight, and he is 9-2-4 with a 2.41 goals-against average and a .913 save percentage, including a shutout this season. Logan Thompson is confirmed for Washington, and he owns a 2.37 GAA and a .914 save percentage with two shutouts. Take the UNDER.
