Vegas Golden Knights at Dallas Stars Game 3 Betting Preview

The Dallas Stars will host the Las Vegas Golden Knights on Tuesday for the third game of the Western Conference Finals in the Stanley Cup Playoffs. The Golden Knights took both games in Vegas in overtime as Dallas wasn’t able to get much going after regulation.

This was a disappointment for the Stars as they were leading game 2 with just 3 minutes left and ended up giving up a goal in the third and then lost early in overtime. If the Stars are going to want to come back in this series, game 3 is a must-win. This is going to be the biggest game of their season and they’ve proven throughout the playoffs that they have more than enough to get the job done when their backs are up against the wall.

The sportsbooks believe that Dallas is going to come away with the win as they come in at -140 on the moneyline and +185 on the puck line. That should be a good indication that this game is going to be close.

Will Dallas Bounce Back?

The Dallas Stars had one of the more interesting regular seasons out of anybody in hockey. Despite finishing with the second most points in the Central Division, there were games that Dallas really left on the board. They lost multiple games in overtime that they should’ve won as they had the most overtime losses in the Central Division and the third most in the Western Conference.

If Dallas found a way to win a few of those, they could be sitting in a much different position than they’re currently in. However, they’ve proven throughout these playoffs that they can find ways to win when it matters most, and that’s what the story should be.

If Dallas is going to win this game, guys like Jason Robertson, Joe Pavelski, Tyler Seguin, Wyatt Johnston, and others are all going to have to get going. Dallas needs their stars to put the puck in the back of the net, and if they don’t, they might find themselves in a very bad position heading into game 4.

Can Vegas Go Up 3-0?

There isn’t much to say about what the Las Vegas Golden Knights have done this season. They’ve proven to everybody that they might be the best team in the Western Conference, and if they find a way to close out Dallas, that would be undisputable.

They’ve played excellent hockey leading up to this series and have continued doing so behind some of their top players. Vegas is physical and has shown Dallas that they’re not here to mess around. The question now for them is going to be if they can find a way to win on the road like they have on their home ice this season.
