Prediction for the NHL Dallas Stars vs Boston Bruins match, which will take place on February 15th. The leader of the East meets the leader of the West - who will earn two points? Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

Dallas is looking great this season. The Stars lead the West standings with 70 points, but they have a lot of chasers who are all extremely close. Therefore, they could slip to the fourth position if the team fails three or four games. Moreover, lately, her four defeats in six games are not going well for her. In the previous home match, Dallas lost to Tampa Bay with a score of 1-3.

Boston is also leading, only in the overall Eastern Conference standings. However, they are in a better position than Dallas, with 83 points and a seven-point lead over second Carolina. And that's even though the Bruins have noticeably slowed down lately. Thus, they have only one win and four losses in five games. Before that, they had a streak of six wins in a row. After the break for the NHL All-Star Game, Boston had only one game, where they unexpectedly lost to Washington 1-2.

• In the last six home games, Dallas Stars have conceded in the second period.
• Dallas has drawn four of the last six games during regular time.

In the upcoming matchup, we're choosing Boston. After all, the Bruins look better than the Stars all season long and have a much better squad. Lately, they have had their setbacks repeatedly, but now they need to improve and win. Besides, Dallas could be in better shape too, and it's hard to call them unbeaten. We think that the visitors will earn two points with the overtime and the shootout.
