Grade B+: Over 6 Total Goals
The Dallas Stars, boasting a 37-18-2 record, are set to face the Columbus Blue Jackets at Nationwide Arena. Dallas has been on a scoring spree, averaging 3.5 goals per game this season. Despite the absence of forward Tyler Seguin due to hip surgery, the Stars' offense remains potent. On the other side, the Blue Jackets have recently bolstered their lineup with the return of captain Boone Jenner and forward Kirill Marchenko from injured reserve. Marchenko, leading the team with 21 goals, adds a significant boost to Columbus' attack. Given both teams' offensive capabilities and recent player movements, betting on the over for a total of 6 goals is advisable, earning this wager a B+ grade for its strong potential based on current team dynamics.
