The Detroit Red Wings are 37-35-7 and sixth in the Atlantic Division. They have officially been eliminated from playoff contention and will look to win their final home game of the season. Detroit is also aiming to shore up its defense.

Stars vs Red Wings Predictions and Picks
The Stars face off against the Red Wings in this Central vs Atlantic Division matchup. Dallas is 5-3-2 in its last ten games and has the second-best goal differential in the conference at +59. During this skid, the defense has allowed four or more goals in four of those games, including two overtime losses. Dallas ranks fifth in goals against and third in penalty kill efficiency. The defensive rankings are strong; they just need to get back on track.
In the loss to Utah, Dallas blew a one-goal lead twice and gave up goals in every period. The Hockey Club outshot Dallas 34-24 and went 4-for-4 on the power play. Most teams win when they score that much on special teams, and the Stars must tighten up in that area heading into the postseason.
The Red Wings are 5-4-1 in their last ten games with a -25 goal differential. The offense has scored two or fewer goals in three of their last four outings, but Detroit has won three straight at home, all in low-scoring fashion. They rank 24th in scoring overall but fourth on the power play, which could be a key edge against Dallas' recently struggling penalty kill.
In their last game, Detroit beat the Tampa Bay Lightning 4-3 in overtime on the road. It was a back-and-forth contest, with both teams taking the lead twice. The Red Wings gave up a goal in each period, but they did well in shots, faceoffs, hits, and puck control. Detroit had just one power play opportunity and didn't convert, but they'll look to keep pace with Dallas and make an impact on special teams.
Best Bet: Over
The Stars want to break out of this slump by generating more power play opportunities and staying out of the penalty box. The Red Wings will aim to play well on both sides of the puck and give their fans one last great game this season. Both teams have been giving up goals in bunches lately, and that trend is likely to continue.
