Weekly NHL Betting action sees the Dallas Stars<\/strong> taking on the Montreal Canadiens<\/strong> January 27 at Bell Center. Cappers Picks provides free NHL handicapping tips all season long.<\/p>\n The disappointing Dallas Stars will begin their quest to make up some ground in the Western Conference Monday but their task won\u2019t be easy.<\/p>\n Dallas<\/a> (21-18-6-1) at Montreal<\/a> (29-13-2-1)<\/strong> Click here to view today’s… NHL Matchup Angles<\/a> | NHL Insider Gambling Preview<\/a><\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n The Montreal Canadiens await looking to build on a two game win streak and a 7-2-1 stretch in their last 10 games while the Stars hope to improve upon an unflattering 4-4-2 stretch in their last 10 games.<\/p>\n [dfads params=’groups=64160&limit=1&return_javascript=0′]<\/p>\n For the Dallas Stars to consider themselves a contender, it all starts with improved defensive play \u2013 period. Dallas has allowed 151 goals so far this year \u2013 third worst in the West and fifth worst in the NHL. That\u2019s 3.26 goals per game allowed- not good.<\/p>\n Kari Lehtonen figures to get the start in net for the Stars \u2013 he hasn\u2019t been great at any point of the season. Lehtonen has a 2.98 GAA and .904 save percentage so far and has not stolen any games for Dallas this year.<\/p>\n Where the Stars are excelling is in the offensive zone. The team has remained in the top tier of NHL offenses averaging 3.09 goals per game \u2013 fourth best in the league. That said the Stars\u2019 power play hasn\u2019t impressed, ranking 28th at 15 per cent. <\/p>\n [dfads params=’groups=16&limit=1&return_javascript=0′]<\/p>\n Jamie Benn and Tyler Seguin have been sensational for Dallas but the supporting cast has been sadly lacking as evidenced by Jason Spezza\u2019s eight goals and 26 assists so far this season.<\/p>\n Depth is an issue for the Dallas offense \u2013 if you shut down the top guys, the Stars are an average offensive team. And the Habs have the horses to do just that.<\/p>\n The Montreal Canadiens entered the All-Star break all systems go. Everything is going well for this team both offensively and defensively.<\/p>\n Montreal is 7-for-18 on the power play in its last four games after going 1-for-21 in the previous seven. Max Pacioretty leads the Canadiens with 38 points and is eighth in the NHL in goals (21) and seventh in the plus\/minus ratings (plus-22) – he has 12 goals and 15 assists at Bell Center this year. Andrei Markov has four points in two games, PK Subban has three points in two games, Alex Galchenyuk has three points in two games and Brenden Gallagher has three points in his last four games<\/p>\n Carey Price will get the start in goal despite his participation in the All-Star game.<\/p>\n [dfads params=’groups=64161&limit=1&return_javascript=0′]<\/p>\n He has been on fire as well – 9-2-1 in his last 12 games with a 1.66 GAA and .946 save percentage over that span.<\/p>\n \u2022 Over is 8-3 in DAL last 11 overall. The Dallas Stars are actually a better on the road than they are at home but up against a Canadiens team that has lost just five times in regulation of home ice this year, it is hard to imagine Dallas cracking the unwavering confidence of the home side. Montreal is a motivated team \u2013 motivated to chase down first place in the Atlantic Division. <\/p>\n If Montreal wants to be considered a top tier team they absolutely have to take care of teams like Dallas.
