Kind of back on topic, how did a SNES fan like you wind up here? I've understood the oiler and canuck fans, but kind of lost how you found this place.
There was a time when I went to most of the large forums for all the NHL teams. I liked getting different perspectives on the league.

Then HFBoards went into the crapper and another board I frequented died, there were not many options. The biggest Senators board was a joke since it was being moderated by a Leafs fan.

I liked the community feel of the place and had sort of been intrigued by Calgary because it's a similar sized city to Ottawa with a lot in common such as being white collar, affluent and well educated but it has a completely different feel to it as I found out when I spent a couple months there on business. I'd even contemplated moving there because there's a lot more demand for my skills there than in Ottawa. If I had to move out of Ottawa, Calgary would be my first choice in where I'd want to move.

Basically, I like Calgary and I like the more relaxed moderation here where the moderators use a lot more common sense than some other forums (i.e. HFBoreds) even if a lot of you Flames fans are huge homers .
