41 years old, and a Flames fan since 1980.
My early memories include watching the first game against Quebec on 2&7 and having to go to bed after the first period. But I do remember Goulet's goal for the Nords and Chouinard tying it up shortly after; I remember in early '81 going to an autograph session with Kent Nilsson, Jim Peplinski, Eric Vail and Ken Houston and being in awe the whole time.
we moved from Calgary in '83 and I ended up moving to a town filled with Oilers fans, which just made my love of the Flames even stronger. Day after the Flames knocked out the Oilers in '86 I went to school with my Flames shirt on and came home with several bruises from all the disgruntled Grease fans.
