You attend any games in the playoffs? Or in 2015? Our fans were absolutely nuts. Great atmosphere.

Nobody was talking about Nashville and their fans until last year when they had a good team and went on a massive playoff run.

Entertaining hockey breeds good atmospheres. Quit taking shots at Flames fans that aren’t deserved. When our team is winning presidents trophies and going on playoff runs we’ll be every bit as exciting as Nashville fans, and they will be just as apathetic as us when they’re back to mediocrity.

Shame goes for Vegas fans as well. It’s all about on-ice product and has nothing to do with the quality of fans that go to games. To suggest that where someone lives determines how good a fan they are is ridiculous.

Calgary fans are quiet and uninterested during the regular season even when they are a good team. The only time the fans show up is during the Playoffs.

As pointed out this is complete BS. Unfortunately we don't have much of a sample size because sadly the Flames really haven't been at the top of the league much in the history of the franchise. But even with a decent product on the ice the fans will show up as well as any.

Also to my post earlier I wasn't thinking about them being Nashville. I don't care if it's Florida or Toronto. I noticed a pattern of extreme overreaction from their fans in particular on totally legit calls. No need to take an unrelated dump on Flames fans.

I disagree vehemently. They haven’t been a truly good team since the early 90’s. 30 years of mediocrity will do that to a fan base.
