Both teams have some good players and can't be looked past, but are beatable, so I'm fine with either. Vegas and Colorado are the ones that really worry me.

I was rinkside to see the Flames beat the Stars in Dallas in October (mindbottling to think that was this season!), and it was a good game but I think the Flames were the overall better team then. So I'll go with Dallas.

Prefer Dallas but if St Lou maybe the Flames can catch them sleeping after a poor round robin showing.

Given that St. Louis and Dallas play each other on Sunday, I imagine that means the earliest the Flames will play is now Wednesday, not Tuesday.

Vegas and Colorado are also both beatable.

Dallas for sure. They don't have much in the way of scoring after their top 2 forwards. The Blues scare me a lot more.

Not that it matters but the Blues won the season series against the Flames and we beat Dallas.
The margins for victory were much tighter against the blues (2 or 3 OT losses) than the Stars.

I'd rather face Dallas, once St. Louis starts rolling they are going to be very difficult to beat.

We've already figured out the easiest way to deal with teams like that.

Dallas did until 2018 ish, not so much since our 2nd overall season.
Kind of same with the Blues. I feel like the Flames have played them better in the past two seasons as well, but with not as much success as they've had against Dallas.

I wanted Colorado, simply because i don't like them and wanted revenge.
Don't care between these two.

Perhaps later, we will get our revenge.

I want to eliminate the champs. Just like game 81 against LA in 2015.

They are, but the Flames for whatever reason let those teams get into their heads far too often for my liking. The Avs in particular, I'm not sure they have an answer for Mackinnon at all.

That’s not decided yet. Blues play the Stars on Sunday. That will decide who finishes 3rd and 4th.

Bring either of them on. Flames never play well in Dallas or St Louis (though usually because it's the 3rd game in 4 nights or part of a back to back) and seem to play both better at home (no empirical evidence of this though).
Neutral site they will be fine.
