Dallas Stars Injury Report
Mike Modano (C) (Appendix) is questionable for Friday. Krys Barch (RW) (Achilles) and Tom Wandell (C) (Knee) are out for the season.
Edmonton Oilers Injury Report
Ales Hemsky (RW, Shoulder), Nikolai Khabibulin (G, Back), Jean-Francois Jacques (LW, Back), Sheldon Souray (D, Hand) and Ladislav Smid (D, Neck)are all out for season.

Dustin Penner (LW, Eye) and Ryan Jones (RW, Knee) are probbale for friday while Ethan Moreau (LW), Sam Gagner (RW) and Shawn Horcoff (C) are questionable for friday.
I'm expecting a high scoring game in this one. Over is 4-0 in Stars last 4 home games against a team with a road winning % of less than .400! In addition, Over is 4-0 in Oilers last 4 road games vs. a team with a winning home record.
Oilers are 6-4 Over in last 10 games played and Over is 7-1 in Oilers last 8 road games. More over, Over is 24-9-1 in Oilers last 34 when their opponent scores 5 goals or more in their previous game.
Over is 2-1 so far this season in last 3 meetings. In addition, Over is 4-1-1 in the last 6 meetings in dallas and 6-2-1 in the last 9 meetings.
I know Dallas Stars are huge favourite here but Edmonton Oilers won't surrender easily. Even if they can't win, they should be able to score 2-3 goals against Stars. They can pull an upset as well, why not? This is hockey you know
I'm expecting a goal fest in this one probably a score like 3-4.
My pick is Over 5½ Goals!
Good luck!
Pick: Over 5½ Goals (-130)
