The set-up: Dallas is making a strong push towards the playoffs and it's historically enjoyed a lot of success in Calgary. But after five straight wins on the road, I thnk the Stars will finally come up short here in this difficult road venue. Dallas has gotten unbelievable goaltending play from Ben Bishop, but the Flames won't want to take the foot off the gas quite yet with six games remaining. In fact, if the playoffs were to start today, then these two teams would be playing against each other. With that in mind, I think the home side protects home ice tonight.

The pick: Take it for what you will as well, but Dallas is just 10-13 (-7 units) this year after a win by two goals or more, while Calgary is 21-12 (+6.5 units) in trying to revenge a loss vs. an opponent (just lost in Dallas two weeks ago). Lay the price.
