The NHL regular season has started, so we are waiting for a lot of interesting games, among them a meeting between Dallas and Carolina. The meeting of these teams at the American Airlines Center will take place on December 1 at 04:30 Moscow time. Our portal offers you its forecast for the outcome of this meeting.
Dallas Stars
In the opening rounds, the "stars" do not look the best, they often fail in defense and have problems with implementation. Recently, Dallas has given out a series of victories, while providing a bright attacking hockey in all links. There are small problems in defense, but a powerful attack still allows you to score points. So in the last match, the stars beat Arizona on the road with a score of 2:3.
Carolina Hurricanes
The Hurricanes managed to sign a good goalkeeper, which is one of the best transitions of the summer. The new first number of "Carolina", Anderson, is a quality player and at the start of the season shows a high level, which has already brought several victories to "Carolina". A good game of the Hurricanes is also promoted by an updated defensive line, which has become more reliable. Recently, the Hurricanes began to fail, having problems with the composition, so in the last match they lost at home to Washington 2:4.
Injuries and disqualifications:
- Injuries:
-
Dallas - Bishop (knee injury).

Statistics and figures

- Dallas has an excellent streak of four consecutive wins.
Forecast
It is difficult to single out a favorite in this confrontation, because both teams are able to show a good game. The "stars" have more experienced and well-played performers, but the "hurricanes" have problems with injuries. "Dallas" is on the move now and often wins. I think we will have a hard game, but the victory will go to the hosts.
