The Dallas Stars will be determined to get back on track Sunday as they host the Florida Panthers at American Airlines Center. Dallas must produce a response to Thursday’s embarrassing 8-3 defeat against the Winnipeg Jets.
The Stars have seen a lot of defensive success this season, which is why Thursday’s heavy defeat was so unexpected. The team also gave up three goals to San Jose in their previous game, and recently there was a 6-5 win over Washington. They will hope to correct some of the defensive mistakes in Saturday’s clash against Buffalo.
Playing two nights in a row is never easy, but the Panthers will be in a similar situation on Sunday. They face St. Louis on Saturday and will be in an even worse spot compared to the Stars, as Paul Maurice’s side also has to travel overnight.
Florida remains without Brad Marchand and Aleksander Barkov, limiting the team’s ability to play to its full potential. They have won back-to-back games only three times this season and will have it difficult on Sunday against a team that wants to prove its worth in front of its fans.

Our Dallas Stars vs Florida Panthers Prediction
With Miro Heiskanen out injured, the Stars have struggled defensively, but they still have one of the best defensive records in the league. Glen Gulutzan’s team knows how to suffocate offenses and will be helped by the opponents' schedule in their attempt on Sunday.
Not only are the Panthers completing a back-to-back set, but this will also be their third game in four nights. Dallas has been in action only once this week and is bound to have fresher legs.
Our prediction for Dallas Stars vs. Florida Panthers: Stars to win.
