June 3, 2004 - Calgary defeats Tampa Bay 3-2 (OT) "The Shift" by Iginla, Saprykin OT winner for a 3-2 series lead
May 3, 2004 - Calgary defeats Detroit 1-0 (OT) - Gelinas ends the series in OT on home ice
April 19, 2004 - Calgary defeats Vancouver 3-2 (OT) - Gelinas breaks the cup curse, game 7 OT winner
April 14, 1991 - Calgary defeats Edmonton 2-1 (OT) - Theo Fleury slides down the ice
May 25, 1989 - Calgary defeats Montreal 4-2 - The Stanley Cup
April 15, 1989 - Calgary defeats Vancouver 4-3 (OT) - Vernon's spectacular OT saves
April 30, 1986 - Calgary defeats Edmonton 3-2 - Steve Smith's own goal for the biggest upset in Flames history

So I've been to 3 of the best Flames games of all time?
Pretty sweet!!
It's hard to rank the 3 I've been too. I'd say it goes:
1. Saturdays game against the Canucks
2. Eliminating Detroit in '04
3. SJ 3-0 comeback.
