Dallas is playing without rest. But the last six times the Stars did that the game went over the total. It's not surprising when Dallas goes over a total since it is the highest scoring team in the NHL while also ranking No. 2 in shots on goal and power play efficiency. The Stars certainly can exploit an Edmonton defense that ranks as the league's third-worst.

Edmonton has one day's rest. The Oilers are 10-2-2 over when playing on one day's rest. They've gone over during each of their last five games versus a Central Division opponent.
