Hello everybody,

So, I moved last year. The sad part of leaving that house was leaving behind my boys' room, which I had painted with Calgary Flames colors. It had a nice accent wall that was all red, and a ledge around the outside walls of the room that was also red, and the inside of the closet was red too.

Well, my boys want the same thing in their new room and I'm on holidays and ready to go. So I head down to Home Depot, because that was where you buy NHL licensed paint colours only to find out that it isn't available anymore. At least, when I look on the websites it isn't available in Canada.

Has anybody painted a room with Calgary Flames red and had success matching the red? None of the swatches at Home Depot matched the red on my hat, but I'm not sure that was the best way to match it, even though that is what the clerk told me was the best route.
