Dallas Stars vs Colorado Avalanche: Colorado Avalanche 2nd Period Moneyline (-108)

The Colorado Avalanche need to outscore the Dallas Stars in the second period for this bet to win. Both teams have been pretty even lately, each winning four out of their last ten games. The Avalanche have a strong group of left-handed shooters, which could help them find opportunities against the Stars' defense. The game is being played at the American Airlines Center, so the Stars will have home ice, but that doesn't always guarantee success. With both teams showing similar performance, it feels like a toss-up. The biggest risk is that both sides are closely matched, meaning this could easily go either way.
