Flames won 2 of 3 in the regular season, Stars played poorly before the shutdown & haven't seemed to find their groove again. Benn, Seguin feast on Flames, we'll have to find a way to contain those two. Stars home team first 2 games, don't matter much, Flames roliing 3.5 lines. Flames in 6!!

This is a great matchup on paper:
-Dallas is 1-7-2 in their last ten;
-Bishop and Seguin may be hurt;
-Lost the season series to the Flames;
-Average age of Benn, Bishop, Cogliana, Comeau, Fedun, Pavelski, Perry, Radulov, and Sekera is 33; and,
-Flames have better regular season/qualifier/round robin PP and PK numbers.
They still play the games for a reason, but I'm alot more optimistic than if we were playing Colorado or Las Vegas.

I’d rather not have to play Colorado or Vegas.
Vegas plays a good tight basic game to a tee and Colorado has the potential to open up a game wide open and blow the doors off other teams.
Dallas is inconsistent and beatable.

Well....all the numbers and stats are favorable but in the end, the game gets decided on the ice, not on a spreadsheet. I think the Flames can win the series, but they have to actually do it.
So, good luck to the Flames this year!
Go Flames Go!!

The fans shouldn't care more than the players.

Totally agree. My emotional investment is predicated on the players deserving my appreciation. If they don't bring a whole team effort, I'm watching Brooklyn NineNine reruns.....

Whoop whoop puck drop is about to happen. I may be drunk but I like our chances. At least make it a series.

That was a beauty! 
Like how Radulov mocks the ref and slides 4' up the circle on that puck drop.

That was a solid pp, and a nice goal by Dube. He is really playing with confidence.

Dube!!! Wow, what a power move! I didn't think he had that kind of steam to go to the net alone!
What a great goal!!
Whoooooppppp!!!!
That line is doing just what I'd hoped, they are setting the tone for the whole team.

The flames radio announcer is planning the parade. That guy puts rod Phillips to shame.

Flames getting pushed around in 3rd by Stars, looked like they were trying to sit on a one goal lead. Stars almost caught up with shots now....they better get back on the throttle and soon.
