The six-game home stretch comes to a close with Sunday’s contest against the Minnesota Wild in Raleigh, N.C. The Hurricanes had their full group of skaters available by the weekend.

New Jersey Devils vs. Dallas Stars Pick & Prediction JANUARY 20th 2024

The Dallas Stars possess one of the top offenses and rank among the better road teams in the NHL. When their four-game road trip began with a dud against the Philadelphia Flyers, they were left feeling humbled.
