Stars vs Panthers Picks, Predictions & Odds Tonight - NHL

The Dallas Stars and Florida Panthers both reached their respective Conference Finals last spring, and the pair of juggernauts are back on the fast track to have a say in this year’s playoffs. It’s just that they’re both entering this tape-measuring matchup in run-of-the-mill fashion.

Dallas is coming off a 4-0 road loss to the Tampa Bay Lightning on Monday, and the hiccup has the Stars mired in a ho-hum 3-3-2 stretch. Similarly, Florida has been sitting on its 4-3 home loss to the New York Islanders since Saturday night, and the Panthers are also middling along a 4-4-1 run.

So, for a pair of teams with Stanley Cup odds aspirations, something has to give. And, their current so-so form is just scratching the surface of how similar the Stars and Panthers are. The NHL odds for Wednesday’s Game further reinforce it with Florida just a short home favorite.

Here’s my free NHL picks for the Stars vs. Panthers on Wednesday, December 6.

Stars vs Panthers odds

Stars vs Panthers predictions

The Dallas Stars and Florida Panthers both drive possession and limit opponents at 5-on-5. Dallas ranks seventh in Corsi For percentage (53.5) while allowing the fourth-fewest expected goals per 60 minutes (2.34). Similarly, Florida has caved opponents in with a fourth-ranked 57.1 CF% while allowing the third-fewest 5-on-5 goals per 60 (1.75).

I also value that neither team is facing stark statistical correction moving forward. The Stars sport a .999 PDO while the Panthers match them with a nearly identical 1.000 mark.

Add both teams sending an established goalie to the blue paint, and these two are exactly who we think they are going into this tape-measuring matchup.

Dallas and Florida are both healthy, well-rounded, and loaded with proven veterans and emerging scorers up and down their lineups. They’re well-coached and defend well. I expect goals to be at a premium.

One of the only statistical gaps I value between the teams is the Panthers aren’t as disciplined. Florida has taken the sixth-most minor penalties at 5-on-5, while Dallas has taken the eighth fewest. Additionally, the Stars rank second in penalty-kill percentage (88.8%), while the Panthers’ 81.7% mark is 12th.

Dallas also boasts a better power-play percentage (22.1%) compared to Florida’s 17.5% mark.

Under 6.5 goals

Panthers +1.5

+650 at SIA

I anticipate a close, low-scoring game, and I give Dallas a slight edge in special teams. We’re landing the long odds because the Panthers puck line doesn’t correlate with the Stars moneyline.

All said, Dallas will need to hold Florida to two goals or fewer and win by 1.

Stars vs Panthers moneyline and Over/Under analysis

There’s been minor movement to the moneyline since Tuesday afternoon. A splash of Florida action has been followed by buyback on Dallas. Still, considering the similarities and strengths of both the Stars and Panthers, I’m not anticipating either side to stray too far from even money.

This is an interesting total because a few sportsbooks opened it at 6.5, and it is all the way down to 5.5 at others. As a result, I consider the 6.0 line fair and likely to last leading into puck drop tonight.

Adobe to add generative AI tools into its video editing software

Adobe Inc on Monday said it plans to introduce new artificial intelligence (AI) features into its video editing software used by the film and television industries. The tools will let video editors do things like change the lighting in a shot from midday to sunset or generate background music just by typing in a few words of text to tell the system what to do. The tools build on a new system called Adobe Firefly that the company introduced last month for generating still images and text. Adobe is riding a wave of interest in generative AI spurred by applications from Microsoft Corp-backed OpenAI and Stability AI that allow users to create novel images with just a few words of description. But after Getty Images sued Stability AI alleging that the startup misused Getty's copyrighted images in training its AI system, legal questions clouded whether the output of such AI systems can be used in commercial work. Adobe, one of the biggest suppliers of software ...

New Video of the Black Knight Alien Satellite in Space

Image
Just for those of you who still don’t know, the Black Knight is an artificial extra-terrestrial satellite that has been orbited around the Earth for almost 13.000 years. The satellite’s story is basically a recollection of many stories and many interpretations, all of them thoroughly documented and investigated by experts. The origins of the Black Knight dates back from 1889 when Nikola Tesla’s radio experiments noticed it accidentally. It was also noticed by an amateur operator called Jorgen Hals in Oslo, Norway in 1928. At the same time, in 1954 ufologist Donald Keyhoe told newspapers that the US Air force has detected two satellites orbiting around Earth, something that was impossible since no country had the Technology to launch a satellite. Moving forward in time, in 1960, TIME reported that the US Navy had detected a strange object that was thought to belong to the Soviet Union, however, an article revealed that the object in question was the remains of ...

The Bell X-22 гeⱱoɩᴜtіoп: Soaring at 8,000 Feet, Speeding Beyond 300 mph, and Spanning 450 Miles – A ɡгoᴜпdЬгeаkіпɡ Aircraft Advancement

Image
    When flying in an aircraft you aren’t always guaranteed the best terrain in the world to take off or land from. Landing and takeoffs also require a lot of space which is also isn’t always likely to happen. Vertical takeoff has always been a desired feature for aircraft and one of the first planes to implement it was the Bell X-22. Powered by four ducted fans the X-22 made its debut in the mid-1960s. It was a spacious aircraft with seating for two pilots and up to six passengers or a maximum payload of 1,200 lbs. It could hover to a height of 8,000 feet, fly at speeds just over 300 mph with a range of 450 miles. Two X-22 prototypes were built and tested, but sadly one was ɩoѕt to a сгаѕһ саᴜѕed by problems with hydraulics. In the end, the X-22 remained an experimental aircraft because the designs were not quite up to the standards of what the Air foгсe was looking for.   However, the X-22 did provide excellent data to further the research of future v...
