How to Watch: US TV: Fan Duel Sports Detroit; Victory+; ESPN+. Canada TV: Sportnet+.

Time: 8 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time (EDT)

Our final game of NHL predictions has the Detroit Red Wings looking for the season sweep against the Dallas Stars. Injuries have bitten the Red Wings fairly hard in recent weeks. Detroit is 4-5-1 in its last 10 games, including losses in four of its last five. Alex DeBrincat has five points in the team’s last 10 games. John Gibson is the projected starter for the Wings.

Jake Oettinger is the confirmed starter for Dallas, which is 9-0-1 in its last 10 games. The Stars have piled up the points and could be a problem in the Stanley Cup Playoffs. Jason Robertson has collected eight points in the Stars’ last 10 games.

The Red Wings have been struggling with injuries, and the Stars have been hot. Dallas should continue that.

Prediction: Stars win 4-1.
