Back in that era. The Calgary Flames and the Edmonton Oilers were the 1-2 teams in the NHL. Only reason why the Flames only got a few chances to play in Conference Finals or Stanley Cup Finals was they have to play Edmonton Oilers on the Smythe Division Finals. Man those are good times especially after the Flames hired our coaching genius Bob Johnson from University of Wisconsin Badgers. He figured out how to beat the Mighty Oilers. Too bad he wasn't the one coaching the team when they won the Stanley Cup. The rivalry between the two Alberta teams was awesome and very intense. You'll be a fool to walk around Edmonton with the Flames jersey on.
