Stars at Sharks 1/11/20 - NHL Picks & Predictions

The Stars are coming into the game here after shutting out the Anaheim Ducks by a 3-0 score. The Stars with the win were able to move up to second place in the Central Division. What is really impressive is the Stars have ended up getting a 26-14-4 record on the year so far.

When it comes to the offense the Stars have been shaky at times with 2.67 goals a game being scored. The defense for Dallas is only giving up 2.40 goals a game. The power play for the Stars has converted at a clip of 18.5% on the year and the penalty kill is sitting at 83.1% on the year.

The Sharks are heading into the game here after picking up a nice win over the Columbus Blue Jackets. Granted the game was a struggle for the Sharks, but it was a win that Sharks needed to get and it was a home win, which caused quite a bit of excitement in the stands and broke the Sharks 2 game losing skid. What else helps is the win allowed San Jose to improve to 20-22-4 on the year.

This year the Sharks have ended up getting a total of 2.64 goals a game being scored. The defense for the Sharks has allowed only 3.33 goals a game. The power play for San Jose has converted at 16.5% on the year and have ended up killing off a league leading 88.6% of the power plays faced.

The Stars are looking to extend their winning streak even more and playing against the Sharks that is definitely a possibility. Look for the Sharks to come into the game playing some decent hockey on the day, but even after getting the morale lifting win in the last game the Sharks are not able to do much against what has become a league leading defense for the Stars. Final Score Prediction, Dallas Stars win 2-1.
