Preview
Calgary at Dallas



The Calgary Flames have every right to feel positive vibes following a comeback victory and Friday night can clinch their Western Conference opening-round series against the Stars by winning Game 6 in Dallas.

As Pacific Division champions the Flames were the deserved favorites entering the series but have been given all they can handle by a Stars team that didn't clinch a spot until they claimed a wild-card berth with one regular-season game remaining.

Maybe -- and it's a big maybe -- the Flames have finally cracked the code to solving Stars goaltender Jake Oettinger (who has a sparkling 1.63 goals-against average and .956 save percentage in the series) and/or the Stars have run out of whatever magic has kept them in a series in which they've been continually outplayed.

Flames leaning on locker room leadership in pivotal moments

“You make the playoffs because you have some [leadership],” Calgary head coach Darryl Sutter said. “Half the teams do. It’s not like there’s some brilliant moment that falls out of the sky and that’s going to make the difference in the game.”

Jake Oettinger keeps soaking up pressure for Stars with big saves, but he needs more help

The main reason the Stars will play Game 6 against the Flames on Friday night is Jake Oettinger. And the main reason they hope to force a Game 7 back in Calgary is also Jake Oettinger.

The 23-year-old Stars goaltender has masked many of his team’s deficiencies, as Dallas faces a 3-2 series deficit in the best-of-seven first-round series against the Flames. The Stars have been perhaps the worst possession team of the playoffs so far, held afloat by Oettinger’s steady and sometimes eye-popping performances.

Remember everyone...the Red Lot IS open for this game if you would like to congregate with your fellow Flame fans.

I think it should be called the Fire Pit myself, but regardless....

Go get em boys!

Big game with the Stars on the ropes. Will the Flames take them out in six?

It’s a tough game to win the elimination one but I believe the Flames will do it, they’ve played good on the road.

Go Flames!

Awesome to see Stone lead the way in powerplay time for dmen last game when he didn't even draw in the first 3 games. I hope he continues to be an x factor tonight!

Always hard to finish off a team. Special teams will be critical, need to win that battle for sure.

I expect both goalies will be really good again.

Hopefully the Flames can get on the board early and force Dallas to open it up a little.

between this and some PK time, it helps save the rest of the D for 5 on 5 minutes...excellent coaching.

Will Dallas reinsert Gurianov or Radulov? Will it matter? Tune in and find out!

Going to continue my winning formula of watching the first period then PVR the rest. When you’re old it’s good the heart, you are able to fall asleep and get to watch the win over coffee in the morning

I am generally pessimistic, it's my nature but I feel oddly confident about this one. I have a feeling we get one of those regular season specials where we get one, and then smell blood in the water, and score a bunch quickly. Our first low stress game as the Flames win this one 5-1 on the road.

Pinder is right (just heard him on 960). Flames are due for some bounces. Tonight is that night.
