The Dallas Stars are in familiar territory. After a hard-fought opening round series, head coach Pete DeBoer concocted another Game 7 victory against Colorado, setting the stage for Dallas to face the West’s top team, Winnipeg, in the second round.

It's blue, covered in stickers and mini-sticks, topped with a replica Stanley Cup, filled with gas and ready for Round 2 of the NHL playoffs.

Both teams had spectacular Game 7 comebacks while missing a star forward and top defenseman. That makes this series a tough call.
