At 9:05 pm, our selection is on the Dallas Stars over the Pittsburgh Penguins. The Stars -- one of the hottest team in the league in the 2022 portion of the season -- have cooled off considerably in 2023. After going 23-15 combined during the months of October-December, the Stars then put up a record of 8-14 in the first two months of 2023. Thankfully for them, the Stars have turned that around a bit in March, going 7-4 in their first eleven games this month. Speaking of turnarounds, the Penguins were 0-4 in their last four games while being outscored 18-7 coming into what seemed like an almost impossible task last night in Denver against the defending NHL Champs. But Pittsburgh somehow came out of Colorado with a victory over the Avs before traveling south to Dallas for tonight's match-up. Now the Pens face another uphill battle as they try to stay relevant in the Eastern Conference where they are barely hanging on to a Wild Card spot. The Pens are 2-6 in the last eight meetings in Dallas while the home team is 20-8 in the last 28 meetings of these two. Take the Stars. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie
