They have won 3 of their last 4 games and are coming into this one on a 2 game winning streak.

The Flames are coming into this game as a favorite with the current betting odds. They have lost 2 straight games now going down 2-1 in the series after winning the first game but they still played well for most of that game in game 3. They did have a lead and were even dominating in the game up to the 3rd period where it all fell apart for them. They finally got their offense moving though and scored 2 goals but they had plenty of other chances as well. The Flames are going to start opening this series up as their offense starts to heat up and they are the better offensive team here. The Stars were starting to sit back on their heels in the last game and if that happens again here the Flames will make them pay as they have a much stronger offense. The Flames will tie up the series here and send it back home 2-2. The best bet here is on the Flames to win this game.
