The bet on Dallas Stars with a 4.5 spread is primarily driven by their superior defensive performance and their head-to-head record against Edmonton Oilers. Despite being the away team, the Stars have maintained an average of 2.8 goals against in their last five away games, lower than the Oilers' 3.0 average goals against in their last five home games. This indicates the Stars' strength in limiting the scoring opportunities of their opponents. Additionally, Dallas has won three out of their last five matchups against the Oilers, showing a history of success against this particular team. The Stars' recent away record of 4-1 further supports this bet, as it demonstrates their ability to perform well regardless of playing on their home ice or not. Therefore, based on the Stars' stronger defensive performance and head-to-head record, the 4.5 spread bet is justified.
