Flames play well against st and Dallas. Flames Do NOT play well against LV and Colorado. Id rather St.Louis if I was really honest. Teams that take down the reigning cup champs tend to get an extra boost moving onwards.

I would say this requires some nuance:
The Flames DID NOT play well against Colorado in the playoffs last season. Otherwise, the games with the Avalanche have been pretty competitive for a couple of years now.
The Flames DO NOT play well IN Vegas. In games against VGK at the Saddledome the Flames have pretty consistently owned the ice. The Knights's achilles heel is playing away from home: 17-13-4 on the road this year, and 36-33-6 the past two years.
