The Adirondack Civic Center Coalition has a plan to purchase the Adirondack Thunder, to make sure the team stays in Glens Falls.

The Coalition announced its deal with the Calgary Flames, who currently own the team, at a Tuesday morning news conference, scheduled at the same time as the team's game in Brampton, Ontario.

The ECHL Board of Governors approved the deal earlier this month.
Called it when they didn't use a flames theme for the team.

They bought the team for the arena lease in Stockton.

There are conversations about a continuing Calgary affiliation, but it is not decided yet.

Even if Calgary does not continue its affiliation, I doubt there would be any issue getting another AHL affiliate, given its location.
