There is a lot of stuff going on in the sports world... MLB Playoffs, Pre-season for the Stars and the Mavericks pre-season is just around the corner, and then we have the NFL. This is still a pre-season game. It doesn't count. The Stars lost to the Blackhawks earlier this pre-season. This game is going to be played in Dallas. The Stars lost by one in Chicago, 4-3... I would like to think that the Stars can return the favor as they gear up for the regular season. Chicago is 3-1-1 this pre-season, but has been outscored 15-19... so they lose big and win close. In four pre-season games, the Stars are 1-3 with 11-14 scored to opponent score ratio. What does this mean? Stars win close and lose close. For whatever reason, I feel I shouldn't trust those numbers, since I know the Stars have lost by one in three loses and won by two, so the ratio should be just one goal difference and not three. This, of course, doesn't count the game the Stars played against Colorado yesterday, where they lost 3-1.
Forecast: Chicago has the better momentum and the Stars really have none. It would only be obvious to take Chicago in this one until we can see the Stars actually starting to put something together. I still think the Stars are a playoff worthy team, but they just aren't playing like one right now. Again, it is still pre-season. Score: 3-2.
