Ottawa Senators vs Dallas Stars Prediction: The guests will be stronger

Prediction for the NHL match which will take place on February 23. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

Ottawa looks bad this season, and already, we can say that its chances for the playoffs are practically zero. At the moment, the team sits only in the last position in the Atlantic Division standings and 15th in the East. The Senators have only 49 points in their assets, and the gap from the playoff zone is already 15. We note that after two defeats, Ottawa beat Tampa Bay (4:2) with a score of 4:2 but then lost to Florida (2:3) in overtime.

Dallas is in great spirits throughout the campaign. Thus, ahead of the meeting, the Stars are leading the Central Division standings and are second in the overall West standings with 76 points. The results are great, but after an extremely good stretch, the Stars have lost momentum. Now they're on a three-game losing streak. They lost 3:4 to Edmonton in overtime, to Boston in a shootout, and also 1:3 to the Rangers the day before.

Bookmaker analysts favor Dallas in this battle for a reason. The team is having a wonderful season, where they show great hockey. And now, in three games in a row, the Stars have suffered defeats - they urgently need to win. The opponent for this purpose is extremely suitable - practically the main outsider in the East. We think the visitors will be able to earn two points due to their class, so we'll take their final win (including overtime and shootout).
