The Dallas Stars (30-17-1) will look to strengthen their position in the Central Division as they face off against the St. Louis Blues (23-22-4) at Enterprise Center on Saturday night.
The Stars enter the contest boasting one of the NHL's stingiest defenses, allowing just 2.49 goals per game and conceding only six goals in their last three matches.
Dallas's balanced attack, led by the dynamic duo of Matt Duchene and Jason Robertson, has been producing consistently with 3.13 goals per game.
The Blues, meanwhile, are hoping to jumpstart their offense, which has struggled to find its rhythm this season, averaging 2.82 goals per game despite strong performances from Jordan Kyrou and Dylan Holloway.
The matchup presents an intriguing contrast between the Stars' defensive prowess, anchored by Miro Heiskanen and Casey DeSmith, against the Blues' determination to protect their home ice.
