Calgary Flames History
The Flames originated in Atlanta, Georgia in 1972. After eight years, they relocated to Calgary in 1980, where they were greeted by a far more hockey-friendly fanbase. Thus began the Battle of Alberta, which refers to the ongoing rivalry between the Flames and the Edmonton Oilers to the north.
The Flames were vanguards in terms of bringing in foreign players, as Håkan Loob became one of the league's first European stars. Loob, Doug Gilmour, Joe Nieuwendyk, Mike Vernon, Lanny McDonald, and Al MacInnis were the stars behind the Flames' only Stanley Cup Championship in 1989, gaining a measure of payback against the Montreal Canadiens in six games. Montreal had defeated the Flames in the Stanley Cup Final three years earlier.
Despite a block on players from the USSR, the Flames had the foresight to draft Russian star Sergei Makarov in 1983. Makarov was among the first Russians to play in the NHL when he joined the Flames in 1989-1990.
Despite financial issues, the diminutive Theo Fleury and Jarome Iginla led the Flames throughout the '90s, bouncing in and out of the postseason with little long-term success until 2004, when the Flames made another run at the Cup, only to lose to the Tampa Bay Lightning in seven games. The Flames have made it to the Playoffs 25 times and have two Presidents' Trophies to their credit, along with eight division championships.

Calgary Flames at the Scotiabank Saddledome
Home to the Calgary Flames, the idea for the Scotiabank Saddledome(Opens in new tab) was seeded when it became clear that two major events would be in need of a world-class arena — the bid for the 1988 Olympic Winter Games and the arrival of an NHL franchise. The Saddledome opened its doors on October 15, 1983. The arena became a star attraction during the 1988 Olympic Winter Games, hosting both the figure skating and hockey competitions. In the fall of 1994, the arena underwent renovations and one year later the new Scotiabank Saddledome was unveiled. The Calgary Flames celebrated their first season at the arena during their home opener for the 1995-1996 season. The arena can seat more than 19,000 guests and hosts 150 events per year.

Seats were great with a great view however the rink had a lot of empty seats which and the crowd didn’t really make any noise unless the people asked them to cheer. Food and drink prices were great in happy hour
It was a fun game to attend and see some of our future Flames now, and the ticket prices were fantastic (makes it affordable for a family in today's tough economic times).
Enjoyed the game immensely at a very good price. Always fun to watch prospects vying for a full time job as they still care and work extremely hard. Flames organization should have reduced concession prices for the game to match lower entrance price and the theme of bringing out families. My soda pop cost as much as the ticket itself.
the game was great and a nice way to take kids to see high level hockey
The kids had the best time at this event, with free face painting and games. Blasty also sat with us in our row and took a picture with us, then we also ran into Harvey walking around and took a picture with us. The thing that was a little unclear to us if it there was a happy hour during this event, we spent more than our budget and what we were expecting. Also we tried to look for the $10 parking and was unsuccessful as the parking lot we pulled into was $15. Overall, a great event. Tickets were affordable, but the food concession was more than what we wanted to spend as a low income family.
Parking was a nightmare, lineups for food and beer were worse than a regular game. But the Flames destroyed the Oilers so it was a great time!
First flames game and it was definitely amazing. The atmosphere was great and the crowd made it so much better. Sections were easy to find. I love the many bar and food set ups so the line ups weren’t too bad to wait in. Will definitely be back again!!
This was a surprise birthday gift for my husbands 60th birthday. Flew from Kamloops the day of the game, and he was so excited and shocked this was happening. It was a great game, the seats were amazing and you could see the whole ice. Everyone was so nice and friendly. The hotel, Hilton Garden Inn was a short walk to the Saddledome. This was a great trip. Short and sweet.
Event entry was excellent. No issues. Thank you. There should be no minimum requirement on the review. Let us decide how much or how little we want to say.
It was a really great event and experience, evterything has been perfect, we did enjoy
