AAA's 3-GM *ICE-PAK* (18-11 +$4,564 Y-T-D NHL!)
(NHL) Dallas vs. New Jersey, 10/24/2014 3:00 PM, Score: 3 - 2
Total: 5.50 | 120.00 Over
Result: Win
This is an 8* play on the UNDER between the Dallas Stars and the New Jersey Devils.

Dallas is gunning for a fourth win in five overall, which would send the Devils to a fourth straight setback. Dallas is coming off a couple of high-scoring affairs, a 6-5 OT loss to Philadelphia on Saturday, and then a 6-3 win over the Canucks on Tuesday. What was overshadowed by the offensive outburst though was the great play of goaltender Kari Lehtonen who made a season-high 43 saves in the win over Vancouver. The Devils are 0-2-1 in their past three, giving up 14 goals in those contests after yielding only six in their first three. The home side will be especially hungry to atone here after it allowed the Rangers to rally from a two-goal deficit in the third period of a 4-3 OT loss on Tuesday. A date vs. the Stars could be what the doctor ordered to get untracked, New Jersey is 7-0-1 in its last eight at home vs. Dallas, winning the last two; note that goaltender Cory Schneider made 26 saves while outplaying Lehtonen in a 1-0 home victory on January 9th. Schneider is 7-3-0 with a 2.11 GAA in 10 career vs. Dallas. Note that the Stars have seen the total go UNDER the number in nine of their last 16 when playing with two days of rest, while New Jersey has seen it dip below the posted number in ten of its last 18 in the same position. The situation, the numbers and the trends all point to the UNDER as the savvy move in this contest.
