Flames fans have never been great at that stuff, as many fan bases aren't. Montreal, Edmonton, New York, Chicago etc. There's a few special places for stuff like this, but most are just cookie cutter, come to the game, drink beers, entertain clients and have an outing fanbases, that's where we fall.

To be clear, that was 3 stars after he already hugged and left the ice once. Fans wouldn’t have known he would be back out shortly for stars. So many fans who knew and would have cheered already were on the concourse leaving
