Dallas Stars

Vegas Golden Knights

Match Preview

On May 6th, hockey fans are in for the climax of the Western Conference quarterfinal series between the Dallas Stars and the Vegas Golden Knights. The seventh match will take place at the American Airlines Center in Dallas, so the "sheriffs" are approaching it as the favorites.

Dallas lost the first two matches, and it seemed like the end of the series was near. However, Peter DeBoer disagreed. The coach adjusted the settings, thanks to which his charges made an impressive surge of three victories. True, they failed to close out the series in the sixth match. The "sheriffs" were rightfully defeated, failing to score for the first time in the current playoffs.

Vegas, facing elimination, delivered a very quality game. The "Knights" immediately surged forward and created enough moments to score a goal, but only managed to do so in the middle of the third period. Hanifin opened the score, and Stone put the final touch by hitting an empty net at the very end. Thus, Bruce Cassidy's team secured a vital victory, which wouldn't have been possible without Hill's reliable play. He achieved his first shutout in the playoffs.

Projected lineups:

Dallas: Oettinger – Harley, Heiskanen – Johnston, Hintz, Robertson

Vegas: Hill – Hanifin, Pietrangelo – Marchessault, Eichel, Howden

The hosts are without defenseman Hakanpää, who has been in the infirmary for a long time. The guests have no injuries.

During the course of the last meeting with a score of 0-0, it felt like the teams were already in overtime. A real chess match was underway, where the cost of a mistake was too high. Something similar is expected in the decisive match. The stakes are moving on to the second round, so first and foremost, the opponents will be thinking about their goals. We consider a bet on total less than (5.5) goals to be optimal.
