The Calgary Flames are a professional ice hockey team based in Calgary. The Flames compete in the National Hockey League as a member of the Pacific Division in the Western Conference. They are the city's third major professional ice hockey team, after the Calgary Tigers and the Calgary Cowboys. The Flames are one of two NHL franchises based in Alberta, the other being the Edmonton Oilers; the cities' proximity has led to a rivalry known as the "Battle of Alberta".
The team was founded in 1972 in Atlanta as the Atlanta Flames. In 1980, they moved to Calgary, where they played their first three seasons at the Stampede Corral, then moved in 1983 to the Scotiabank Saddledome. In 1985–86, the Flames became the first team from Calgary since the 1923–24 Tigers to compete for the Stanley Cup. In 1989, the Flames won their first and only Stanley Cup title. The Flames' unexpected run to the 2004 Stanley Cup Final gave rise to the Red Mile, and in 2011, the team hosted and won the second Heritage Classic outdoor game.
The Flames have won two Presidents' Trophies for posting the NHL's top regular-season record and have claimed eight division championships.
