I lived in Edmonton for almost ten years and I can say that my experience was the exact opposite. Even went to a few games with Flames gear and nobody bothered us. Some of my friends cheered for the Flames during the cup run also...

In any case both Flames and Oilers fans can agree that the Canucks suck. Makes for good common ground.
