It appears as Dallas is playing a conservative "not to lose" style instead of taking risks that will lead to scoring chances. It worked against the Sharks because they were error prone.
It won't work against this quick, solid, Detroit team.
I don't know about anyone else but it is crystal clear to me that Detroit is far superior to the Stars in every category except goaltending. The Red Wings transition game is the best I've seen in a long time. IMHO any wager on Dallas is likely a loser.
As for Dallas not wanting to head home 0-2, thats true, its also true thet Detroit doesn't want to split the first two home games.
