Dallas finished 50-20-12 and gets a massive boost with Miro Heiskanen returning for Game 1 at home — the line had already priced in his absence. Minnesota counters with a banged-up blue line (Bogosian day-to-day), and the Stars' elite defensive structure at American Airlines Center is a nightmare matchup for the Wild. Laying -1.5 at -238 is steep, but the Heiskanen news is a genuine market edge that tips this firmly toward Dallas on the puck line.
