The Dallas Stars looked like a completely different team from what we saw in Game 3. Dallas was composed yet dominant. Jake Oettinger was solid in net for 40 minutes. The defense did not crumble and there were few breakdowns as Dallas yielded a mere 10 shots while scoring five times en route to a 6-3 win.
Seattle failed to stop Max Domi as Domi made his presence felt immensely. He scored twice and chipped in an assist on another goal. It was that depth scoring that Dallas had in the final three games of their first-round series. Yes, the power play makes Dallas but more scoring options give the Stars that staying power.

Andre Burakovsky is out and so may be Daniel Sprong. However, Jared McCann did play on Tuesday night as he was a surprise addition. How long will it take McCann to get up to full speed?

Kraken vs Stars Analysis
The Seattle Kraken and Dallas Stars make predicting anything far from easy. Dallas tries to replicate their pattern from last round where they went down 2-1 to Minnesota before winning three straight. Now, there is Seattle. The Kraken managed to answer Colorado’s best attack and then win a deciding Game 7.
Dallas got back to the style. that served them well in the regular season. Their depth provided scoring and then the Stars’ power play would do a significant amount of damage. The Stars chased Philipp Grubauer in Game 4 and Dallas has scored four or more goals in three of the four games this series. Seattle even scored three goals on Tuesday.
However, imagine if Jason Robertson gets going. Seattle may be in trouble.
How dominant in the playoffs would the @DallasStars be if Robo started to find the back of the net? #TexasHockey

Honestly, nothing is truly certain in this series but Dallas, overall, has the experience, the offense, team defense, and the goaltending edges.
So, does Dallas keep its home-ice advantage and put Seattle on the brink of elimination?

Kraken vs Stars Prediction
The playoff series has been something else. Now, does Seattle counter in Game 5 or will Dallas finally get that killer instinct going? Dallas must start out similar to Game 4 where they fired 22 of the first 32 shots on goal.
Philipp Grubauer now has the spotlight on him. Can he rebound and make that extra save? The Dallas home crowd attempts to make that harder but a motivated Dallas team could more.
