Because the alternative would have been to play St Louis, the defending Cup champs and a team with a lot more points and a way better record in the regular season against Calgary.
Dallas had only 37 wins this year. Calgary had 36 and won the season series against the Stars. They can't afford to sleepwalk through this series like they did against Colorado.
