Examining the tiers of Calgary Flames team rivalries

In hockey, not all rivalries are created equally. There’s a bit more fan – and player – emotion when playing some teams than others. For the Calgary Flames, there are a few teams that get everybody a bit more riled up.
Here’s a quick snapshot of the tiers of Flames team rivalries.
Tier One: Lifelong hatred
Edmonton Oilers
Okay, duh. Regular season games between these two teams are often events, and for fans (and players), wins over each other just mean something more than just two standings points. These teams have met six times in the post-season, and each of their meetings have created some defining moments for these two franchises.
