I understand the nostalgia you guys have for that era and the added emotion and enthusiasm that the team and fans had. But I don't think that has anything to do with era's or anything like that. You were an up and coming team. You had the rival with a dynasty. The team was still relatively new to the city. There are several things that made Calgary exciting at that time.

scoring was higher and it was more open, i would say it's more defensive now. Their were a lot of barnburners. I haven't looked at stats, though, just using memory i could be wrong lol
