Yes them losing good players to injury was very unfortunate and I hated to see it but it was also a result of the Flames dominating them physically.

I don't think the Tkachuk vs the Blues narrative means as much this year. If it was a regular season and actually playing games in St Louis then I think he'd be more fired up

Hoping we play Dallas, parents are very close with Norm Green so might catch a game or two with him, maybe even at my house.

I kinda want to play Dallas just so I can see Bennett run Perry into the second row.

More or less the same roster that crumpled to one player in round #1 last year. They simply are not on the same level as Vegas Colorado or St. Louis. So I suppose Dallas is the best draw for round 1. However I don’t like our chances against them.

I don't care who we play. Flames will have to beat good teams from here on out, so just bring them on.

I think you want to play St. Louis now before they get their game together. Once they have a rhythm going they'll be hard to beat. They've looked a little disjointed in the seeding round.

Not to mention the boost that feat will give the team.

What is it with these Stars/Blues games having huge implications for the Flames? I'm reminded of Game 7 between St Louis and Dallas in 2016 where, because the Stars lost, the Flames received their second-round pick in that year's draft instead of their first (as part of the Kris Russell trade).
In the end, it worked out OK for Calgary, which picked Dillon Dube with the Stars' second. Dallas picked Riley Tufte in the first, and he's not even close to the NHL. Not many great players picked around him, either.

Well well well...
Both teams are going with their backups, it's Allen vs Khudobin after all.
