The Detroit Red Wings and Dallas Stars are set for a Saturday night showdown at American Airlines Center in Dallas. The Stars have been rolling offensively of late, but are still playing without Mikko Rantanen and Roope Hintz. They still have plenty of strong scoring depth to lean on, but not having Rantanen, Hintz and Tyler Seguin in the lineup due to their respective injuries makes it difficult to expect the Stars to keep scoring at such a high clip. Detroit’s John Gibson has been a steady force between the pipes this season, and he is more than capable of slowing Dallas down.

On the other side, Dylan Larkin’s injury looms large for Detroit. Larkin will be out at least two weeks after suffering a lower-body injury on March 6 against the Panthers, and his absence is a crucial one. Not only is Larkin Detroit’s captain and emotional leader, but he is also among the most consistent offensive players in the league. Larkin is second on the Red Wings with 28 goals and 3rd with 55 points this season. That kind of production will certainly loom large against a Dallas team that is solid defensively. This has the makings of a lower-scoring game, which makes the under the play.
