ASA Free NHL bet: Dallas Stars -125 vs. Minnesota Wild 8pm ET

Dallas returns home in a tied 2-2 series with every reason to seize momentum tonight. Coming off a sloppy overtime defeat, the Stars have proven time and again they respond well to setbacks and play their strongest hockey with extra preparation time.The Stars are 22-7-3 when coming off a loss this season and have hit in 11 of 15 games when playing with 2+ days of rest.Wyatt Johnston has been a revelation in the postseason, already tallying multiple goals and assists while stepping up big in key situations. His emergence helps offset any missing pieces and keeps the offense clicking. The Stars boast one of the league’s better home records this year at 27-12-4 and have owned the advantage when these teams meet at American Airlines Center. Dallas is the superior squad from top to bottom and should dictate play in front of their crowd. This series is headed for a grind, but expect the Stars to grab a critical victory in Game 5 and put Minnesota in a must-win hole.
