I remember after 04, I was wondering if Edmonton would jack that C of Red idea in 06. But they didn't. And after your crowd anthem thing in 06 went viral across the continent, I was worried the Flames would try to do that in 07 playoffs. But they didn't. I remember feeling happy about both, it felt like a mutual subtle nod of respect between hated rivals to leave each of our cool playoff traditions alone and separate, I liked it. I distinctly remember thinking this.

Granted this is before the Katz years, I don't expect that guy to respect a single thing in his life.
Instead they tried to use Copper Kilometre as a cheesy ripoff of the Red Mile. E=NG.
