The Calgary Flames are a professional hockey team based in [|Calgary], [|Alberta], [|Canada]. They are members of the [|Northwest Division] of the [|Western Conference] of the [|National Hockey League] (NHL). The club is the third major-professional ice hockey team to represent the city of Calgary, following the [|Calgary Tigers] (1921–27) and [|Calgary Cowboys] (1975–77). The Flames are one of two NHL franchises in Alberta, the other being the [|Edmonton Oilers]. The cities' proximity has led to a famous rivalry, known as the [|Battle of Alberta]. Games between the teams are often heated events.[|[1]][|[2]] The team was founded in [|1972] in [|Atlanta, Georgia] as the [|Atlanta Flames] until moving to Calgary in [|1980]. The Flames played their first three seasons in Calgary at the [|Stampede Corral] before moving into their current home arena, the [|Pengrowth Saddledome] (originally known as the Olympic Saddledome), in [|1983]. In [|1986], the Flames became the first Calgary team since the [|1924] Tigers to compete for the [|Stanley Cup]. In [|1989], the Flames won their first and only Stanley Cup. The Flames' unexpected run to the [|2004 Stanley Cup Finals] captured the imagination of Canadians, leading [|Prime Minister] [|Paul Martin] to dub them "Canada's team", while the [|Red Mile] celebrations by fans became nationally famous. Off the ice, the Flames own a [|Western Hockey League] franchise, the [|Calgary Hitmen], and in 2007 opened a sports bar and entertainment centre called //Flames Central// on [|Stephen Avenue] in [|Downtown Calgary]. Through the //Flames Foundation//, the team has donated over [|$]32 million to charity throughout southern Alberta since the franchise arrived.(**This Information was taken from Wikipedia on Tuesday January 19, 2010)**
