The St. Louis Blues will meet with the Dallas Stars in NHL action in American Airlines Center, TX, on Thursday, April 13, 2023, at 8:00 PM ET.

 

The Blues are coming to the end of a challenging season, but their offense—which averages 3.23 goals per game—was the only bright light.

 

The top line is led by Jordan Kyrou and Pavel Buchnevich, who combined for 63 goals and 76 assists, but this year’s attack as a whole was excellent.

 

Defenseman Justin Faulk added 11 goals and 38 assists from the point to help open up the attack, in addition to the 57 goals and 108 assists that Brayden Schenn, Robert Thomas, and Brandon Saad scored individually.

 

The defense let the blues down this year, surrendering 3.65 goals per game, especially 3.75 goals per game since March, despite the excellent offense.

 

The defensive point shares of Justin Faulk and Nick Leddy combined are 5.9, but the rest of the team faltered, permitting opponents to find open shots on goal at will.

 

Goalie Jordan Binnington was also terrible, stopping 1792 of 1792 shots for a.892 save percentage with a 3.35 goals-against average and -21.5 goals saved above average. 

 

  • The total went OVER in 9 of St. Louis’ last 11 matches.
  • The St. Louis Blues are 2-4 SU in their last 6 matches.
  • The total went OVER in 9 of St. Louis’ last 9 matches on the road.

St. Louis Blues vs Dallas Stars Predictions 4/13/2023

 

With their offense moving up and producing 3.44 goals per game, the Stars are having a fantastic season.

 

The top two lines, Jason Robertson, Joe Pavelski, and Jamie Benn, combined for 106 goals and 151 assists, but the rest of the attack also contributed.

 

Defensemen Miro Heiskanen and Esa Lindell contributed 19 goals and 76 assists from the point to boost the offense, which was led by Roope Hintz, Tyler Seguin, and Wyatt Johnston’s collective 77 goals and 83 assists.

 

While the offense excelled, the defense also improved, giving up just 2.66 goals per game.

 

While Colin Miller, Jani Hakanpaa, and Ryan Suter collaborated for 12.6 defensive point shares to give the team depth, Miro Heiskanen and Esa Lindell have 10.6 defensive point shares and 243 blocked shots.

 

Also outstanding was goalie Jake Oettinger, who has a.918 save percentage, a 2.41 goals-against average on 1751 shots, and 23.6 more goals stopped than usual.

 

  • The total went OVER in 13 of Dallas’ last 20 matches.
  • The Dallas Stars are 5-0 SU in their last 5 matches.
  • The total went UNDER in 6 of Dallas’ last 7 matches against St. Louis.

St. Louis Blues vs Dallas Stars. The NHL pick for this game is the Dallas Stars. The Blues want to cap off a challenging season with a win, but the Stars want to play well at home and take control of this contest.

 

With Jason Robertson, Joe Pavelski, and the rest of the forward group maintaining a strong offensive zone presence and producing open shots with superb puck movement, the Stars should frequently score against the Blues, who allow 3.65 goals per game.

 

With Miro Heiskanen, Esa Lindell, and the rest of the defense forcing turnovers at the blue line and preventing the Blues from transporting the puck into the offensive zone, the Stars, who allow just 2.66 goals per game, should be able to limit the Blues’ offensive production as goaltender Jake Oettinger steps up and makes numerous significant saves.

 

The Dallas Stars will win to a predicted score of 6-5.
