Flames have work to do amid return of former face of the franchise
The pivotal stage of a pivot game of a pivotal series — and Craig Conroy is losing his mind. The Vancouver Canucks, whilst short-handed, have just tied the game in the dying seconds. And not just any game — but Game 7 of the 2004 opening-round series against the Calgary Flames.

Others may have left us more breathless with the sheer, gasp-inducing audacity of their skill sets. The precocious Kent (The Magic Man) Nilsson springs automatically to mind. The dour Sergei Makarov, too. No one gave more of himself in the community, enjoyed as dramatically satisfying an exit or was (is) more beloved in this town than Lanny McDonald.

Unpredictable Flames best Oilers 2-1 in overtime
As a precaution, a pale and sick Jiri Hudler had to fly to Edmonton by himself on Saturday afternoon as to not spread the flu which has infected the Calgary Flames locker room. In fact, there was almost a chance the Czech winger was going to sit this one out considering how awful he felt in Friday’s 3-2 loss to the Colorado Avalanche (he’d left the game midway through and went home to rest) and was sick all night.

Johnson: Top prospect Gaudreau in another Hobey Baker race, but Flames are never far from his mind
BOSTON — Over the course of 796 career NHL games, 91 of those spent in parts of three seasons in the employ of the Calgary Flames, Marty McInnis got by on wits and skill.
