ST. LOUIS -- In no other sport does playing at home mean so little in the postseason, so maybe the Stars aren't in a bad place playing Game 7 of their second-round playoff match-up at Enterprise Center Tuesday (7 p.m. CT; NBCSN; KTCK).
Heading into Monday's games, home teams were 35-31 in the Stanley Cup Playoffs this season. More importantly, both the Stars and Blues have been better on the road than they have at home. Dallas is 3-3 at home while scoring 2.83 goals and allowing 2.50. The Stars are 4-2 on the road, averaging 2.83 goals per game and allowing 2.17.
