The Seattle Kraken dominated the Dallas Stars with a 7-2 win in Game 3 of the NHL playoff series, spurred by a five-goal surge in the second period led by Jordan Eberle (USA Today). As they face off in Game 4, the Stars must find a way to bounce back from this crushing defeat if they hope to progress in the series (VAVEL.com).
In the past, Stanley Cup playoff hockey was known for its close-checking, low-scoring games, but recent matches, including the Stars’ defeats to the Kraken, have deviated from this trend (NBC 5 Dallas-Fort Worth). The Stars will be seeking a much-needed boost for their NHL playoff aspirations, potentially from record-setting player Jason Robertson. Robertson, who set a club scoring record with 109 points in the regular season, has yet to find his scoring touch in the playoffs (The Dallas Morning News).
Game 4 of the playoff series takes place at Climate Pledge Arena in Seattle on Tuesday at 9:30 PM ET (WYMT). As Stars fans and bettors alike look for clues about the outcome of this crucial match, odds and betting stats suggest a close contest between the two teams and highlight the importance of the players’ performances (WNEM, KGNS).
With the series currently in a back-and-forth dynamic, both teams are seeking to gain an advantage in Game 4 (WinnersandWhiners.com).
