A professional hockey team based in Calgary, Alberta.
The Flames began as the Atlanta Flames in 1972 before moving to Calgary in 1980. They have reached the Stanley Cup Finals 3 times in 1986, 1989, and 2004. Winning two Stanley Cups in 1986, and 2004 on Martin Gelinas no-called goal in game 6.
The Calgary Flames' biggest rival is the Vancouver Canucks. Edmonton Oiler fans seem to think that the Calgary Flames are their rival, however, they can only really have rivals once they have achieved a level of playoff status that has been relatively unheard of in Edmonton for almost a decade (save a run in 2006, of whom, all the star players have left the team shortly thereafter).
Also synonymous with: perfection, achievement through hard work and sacrifice, and an Oilers fan's nightmare.

A complete joke of a city in western Canada. Calgary is a oil boomtown that has basically no culture or history beyond the last 50 years and this is very obvious. The downtown is a soulless collection of glass towers that turns into a ghost town at 5pm when all the yuppies hop in their 3 series and high tail it back to the endless sprawl of cardboard McMansions that envelop the place. Calgary is also rife with homelessness, drug abuse and every other social problem you can think of. Calgarians have convinced themselves they live in some kind of world class city just because they have a Nordstrom now when in reality if it wasn't for Banff no one outside the prairies would have even heard of the place.

Get the calgary mug.A nice city that is obsessed with Toronto. Been there for a week and I don't know what the big deal is. Boring, flat and average. Turned down a nice job because I love Toronto that much. Sorry Calgary, Toronto will always be the city where the best and the brightest go. You guys can have all the rejects from Quebec and Newfoundland.
