What's everyone's pick for the Vegas-Dallas series? I'm going with Vegas in 5.


Stars take it to game 7 and wins it. VGK almost had a meltdown against an underdog Canucks, so I'm expecting that to happen against Stars as well.

VGK's a front runner though.

To be fair, the Canucks were thoroughly outplayed every game other than game 2. Thatcher Demko was the only reason that series was remotely close. The Canucks were going full periods at a time without a shot. So unless Khudobin plays like the best goalie on earth, it won’t be easy for the Stars.

Definitely not expecting that it's going to be an easy ride. But I'm still somewhat confident in this team. They turned a big downward momentum into an overtime victory against one of the best teams in the league (although an injury riddled one). I think they're in pretty good shape in terms with their mindset.

Let's just say I won't be too surprised if DAL takes this series in 6 or 7 games. But I also won't be surprised if the Knights absolutely sweeps us.

At this point we're the underdog and have little to nothing to lose here...we're already much further than any of us expected after the round-robin.

Ikr calling Dallas in 6. I thought the Avs were the strongest team in the playoffs and the Stars sunk them. Vegas takes them to six tho

Respect to Mat Barzal. Dude is a warrior. Taken a bunch of high sticks, lost some blood, and has soldiered on. Again, huge respect

You guys beat us in 2016, though, so we deserve to win this time.

Deserve? I don't think you can site a playoff loss as a reason to "deserve" anything. The only team that deserves anything is the one that wins the cup.

I know, but I'm an Isles fan lol

What I should have said is it's our turn to win this time.

Did Tampa do anything other than special team work this past week? First 2 PKs looked dope.

I think both teams need to turn the page on this one pretty quickly.
