Big time desperation mode for the Calgary Flames who would be eliminated by a loss Thursday night. A win on the other hand would set up a deciding Game 7, and I like the Flames to come through with a big outing when they need it the most.

Four of the previous five games in the series have been decided by one goal (the one that didn't was a 2-0 Flames win), so it's not like the Stars have dominated the series. I have no doubt that the value is on the underdog fighting for its postseason life in this matchup.

8* play on Calgary Flames.
