On Saturday, the Chicago Blackhawks play host at the United Center to Central Division rival the Dallas Stars. Chicago is 3-5-0 and eighth in the division, after an overtime win over Winnipeg on Thursday. On Tuesday, Chicago defeated the Pittsburgh Penguins 5-3, in a high-scoring game. Dallas is 3-3-1 and sixth in the division, after a 3-2 shootout win over Colorado on Wednesday. We predict that Dallas wins.
Chicago has lost five of its first eight games, but has now won two straight after beating Winnipeg and Pittsburgh. The Blackhawks allow an average of 4.00 goals per game and have scored an average of just 2.63 goals per game. Chicago has won each of its last three at the United Center but faces an uphill task against a tough Dallas squad.
Dallas has not scored in big numbers this season through seven games, averaging 2.14 goals per game. However, the Stars have given up only 12 goals during regulation and overtime, for an average of 1.71 goals per game. Dallas has shut out both San Jose and Buffalo, winning 5-0 and 4-0, respectively. On Wednesday, against the high-scoring Avalanche, Casey DeSmith made 25 saves in a 3-2 shootout win.

Our Chicago Blackhawks vs Dallas Stars Prediction
Dallas hasn't scored many goals this season, but the Stars have played much better defense than the Blackhawks. Dallas has allowed fewer than two goals (1.71) per game, while Chicago has allowed an average of 4.00 per game. This is the biggest reason Dallas will win on Saturday evening.
Chicago can build on its wins against Pittsburgh and Winnipeg, especially with Connor Bedard back in the lineup. However, Chicago will need to improve defensively against Dallas.The Stars have a strong blue line and goalie tandem to rely on, which is important when playing on the road in a hostile environment such as the United Center. The Stars have already recorded two shutouts, and we think they will come away with another win.
