| The Flames are 4-0-2 over its last six games, they have lost eight of 11 on the road but are 3-0-3 in their last six away from the Dome. Calgary and Dallas play 4 times in the next 20 games so winning these and putting the Star further in the rearview mirror is important. Olli Jokinen has been on a tear of late, he has five goals in his last four games and 10 points over the last seven. 4-2 Flames – Tanguay, Jokinen, Cammalleri & Kolanos |
