Nashville Predators vs Dallas Stars Prediction, Odds and Picks for Today, 02/28/26

The Nashville Predators and Dallas Stars face off for the third and final time this season, with Dallas currently leading the series 2-0 and aiming to complete the sweep. The Predators recently secured a solid 4-2 victory against the Blackhawks, but they are still outside the playoff picture and need to consistently win to improve their chances. Fortunately, they are relatively healthy, which enhances their prospects, but they are in a tough division and allow a significant number of shots against them. Additionally, their goaltending has been mediocre, making this matchup feel like an uphill battle.

On the other hand, the Stars returned from the break with a win and are enjoying a seven-game winning streak. Their offence is elite, even in the absence of key players like Tyler Seguin and Mikko Rantanen. Although they don’t generate a high volume of shots, their power play compensates, operating at an impressive 30%. They also have a strong home record of 17-7-3, one of the best in the league. In this matchup, they are the superior team, so getting them at plus-money in regulation offers great value. This is the angle we will pursue.
