Calgary Flames' First Nation and Metis Connections

Calgary Flames' First Nation and Metis Connections

November 30th, 2020 Only 11 players with indigenous roots have ever laced up a pair of skates for the Calgary Flames in the 40 years that the team has been in Calgary. During this time, non-indigenous Canadians have made up approximately 75% of the estimated 960 players who played for the team. This means that of all the players ever to don a Flames’...
Flames Need to Honour Former Greats the Right Way

Flames Need to Honour Former Greats the Right Way

November 27th, 2020 It was pure coincidence that I happened to be at the Saddledome on that chilly February night in 2012. As I walked through the concourse, they were handing out special commemorative pins honouring Al MacInnis, who was apparently the first ever inductee of the brand new Forever a Flame initiative. I was completely unaware the special...
The Best Late Round NHL Draft Picks

The Best Late Round NHL Draft Picks

November 6th, 2020 * Our best ever late round draft picks article was originally published in 2014. Time will tell if anyone should be added to the list (feel free to share opinions in the comments below). In the meantime, hard to argue with these guys being the best ever. In the annual NHL Entry Draft, teams select players who they believe have the...
Flames With 100-Point Seasons

Flames With 100-Point Seasons

October 20th, 2020 Since entering the league in 1972 as the Atlanta Flames, the organization has built an incredible list of Hall of Famers to have played for the organization. In 1980, they relocated to Calgary, Alberta and immediately became a force in the '80s. That was in no small part due to the immense talent that the team held through that decade....
Calgary Flames Best All-Time

Calgary Flames Best All-Time

July 16th, 2020 The Calgary Flames were originally founded in 1972 and started in Atlanta, but relocated to Calgary in 1980. They have had many great seasons over the years, none better than 1988-89 when they won the Stanley Cup. Although they have not been able to win another to this point, they have still had many great players and teams along the...

Theo Fleury - It's the Size of the Heart That Matters!

July 15th, 2020 Theo Fleury, born in Saskatchewan, Canada, was one of three sons. His father, Wally, also played hockey but an injury prevented him from reaching the professional ranks. As with most young children in Canada, Fleury grew up skating and playing hockey at every opportunity, often traveling to the rink with his father. Even as a...

Calgary Flames' 50-Goal Scorers

July 11th, 2020 For a relatively young franchise, the Calgary Flames have seen a great deal of strong individual performances since becoming a National Hockey League club in 1972. In particular, the team has had a surprisingly large amount of 50-goal scorers over the years. Calgary Flames' 50-goal scorers. (Vince Richard/The Hockey Writers) In...
Today in Hockey History: July 8

Today in Hockey History: July 8

July 8th, 2020 This date, in 1995, proved to be a very eventful one with the National Hockey League’s annual Entry Draft and the usual dealings that go with it. Over the years, it has also seen some veteran players end up in new places and a successful coach getting his first job in the league. A Busy Day in 1995 Due to the late start and...

2020 HHOF Misses - Fleury, Mogilny, Chabot, CuJo & More

July 2nd, 2020 This past week was a big day for a few former hockey players both NHL and when it comes to the women’s international game.

Theo Fleury Paved the Way for Johnny Gaudreau

Theo Fleury Paved the Way for Johnny Gaudreau

June 30th, 2020 Not many years ago, the NHL was a league you needed to have size in order to play. It was very rare you’d see players below the six-foot mark. A big part of this was because bigger, slower defencemen were able to get away with all sorts of infractions such as hooking, holding, and slashing on a much more regular basis. Fast forward to...
Blazing a Trail: Theo Fleury's Victor Walk

Blazing a Trail: Theo Fleury's Victor Walk

October 21st, 2018 The NHL has changed a fair bit since Theoren Fleury last laced up skates and even more so since he first donned a Calgary Flames sweater. Best known for his small size and large personality, he was an anomaly during his playing days. In an era that featured some of the biggest names and also some of the toughest customers in the history...
Theo Fleury Hall of Fame Worthy

Theo Fleury Hall of Fame Worthy

November 13th, 2017 This series debates the case for Hockey Hall of Fame inclusion for players who are Hall of Fame eligible but have been overlooked for induction thus far. The Hall of fame inducts players based on their “playing ability, sportsmanship, character and contributions to his or her team or teams and to the game of hockey in...
Flames Love Them Some Small Guys

Flames Love Them Some Small Guys

November 5th, 2017 It's been spoken and written about often, but in the game of hockey size isn't everything. While the rules have changed over time and that's allowed different types of players to succeed at different times, one thing has always been true: offensive talent is always in demand. In the case of the Calgary Flames, they've been a club that...
