So many! Schlemko's shootout winner was pretty great. Giordano's OT winner against LA. Ferland owning Bieksa. Ramo's big save against the Rangers. The night the Flames clinched the playoffs! Lots of great memories from this season, and my last one, though not a happy one by any means, Mark Giordano's season ending injury. I think we can all agree that the captain was having his best season, much of the season's success has to be given to him and for his leadership with this young team, and I loved how this team rallied after he went down.

This combined with the absolute disaster that was Edmonton made this season unbelievably enjoyable. It will be even more enjoyable next year when we're even better and McDavid doesn't turn the Oilers around like everyone hopes.

This season came at such a great time for the city, for casual fans and for hardcore fans alike. Just so much fun for everyone. I was at the dome about 15 times and I think maybe one game didn't provide an amazing night of entertainment.

Don't ever forget how unbelievable this season was. Too many moments to count. I've never lost my voice so many times or hugged so many strangers.

Empty netter against the Kings in game 81.

Playoff drought over.

Game 1 against Vancouver was pretty special for me. That was my first ever playoff game and I couldn't have asked for a better ending than to have Russell score with 29 seconds left and completely rip the heart out of all the Canucks fans in my section. I even got a picture of it.

I could come up with at least 50 moments off the top of my head, but my favourite was Jiri Hudler's EN goal against the Kings to clinch the playoffs

I had a lot of memorable moments, but a I'll go with the the 2 easy ones:

1. Stajan's Game 6 winning goal (Easily the best)... and those last 2 minutes of the game.

2. The last few minutes of the LA game to clinch a playoff birth

All in all, what a great year. My favorite team along with 2004 and 1997 (my first year as a Flames fans, god love you Todd Simpson, Joel Bouchard, and the Hoglund-Gagner-Iginla line)

There were a lot of moments this year! Aside from game 6 vs Van, I would say the 3 I saw live were by far the most memorable games I've attended:

5-4 in Nov vs NJ
4-3 in Dec in LA
4-3 in Feb vs BOS

All these games they had no business winning but did. So memorable!

Agree that there are too many to count. The LA come back and LA playoff clincher that also eliminated the Kings, and every playoff win. The joy of every game of the year meaning so much (except maybe game 82). The Stajan goal and the Engelland 1-on-2 fight. So much happiness!

One for me that hasn't been mention was the Ottawa shootout. Only get to see one game a year live because Leafs tickets are ridiculous, as are the Leafs. This year I was on the glass near the hashmarks in Ottawa's end. Got to see an incredible comeback, bruise my palms pounding on the glass and see (IMO) one of Johnny's nicest goals in the shootout. He was literally stick-handling between Anderson's stick and pads! So much fun. Though I would have loved to see a win, I left happy.

Also got to sport a sign featuring this guy

That said "Thank you for watching City TV" (it was on City TV in Ontario, not sure about out west)

couple of camera men clearly didn't get it, or thought it was funny, because I was asked to hold it up, or stop so they could film it twice, but I think it was caught by someone editing for tv, because I haven't heard of anyone seeing it
Lots of comments from fans of both teams though

For me it was Gaudreau proving he not only could play in the NHL but could make a difference. when you look at the games/stats one could say he was the biggest reason the defending stanley cup champs were either golfing or spending days in jail in the spring.

Amazing rookie season for the little guy that shouldn't/couldn't!

How many players could deke a goalie between his legs?

My personaly favourite had to be that epic comeback vs the Sens in March. To come back from a 4-0 deficit....with 13 minutes left in the 3rd period. Unreal. Even though we lost that game in the shootout, we could have won as I believe one of our shooters hit the post.

To me that really was a statement game to the entire league, particularly to the fans out east who probably didn't watch us too much. Never ever let your guard down vs the Flames, no matter what the score is and no matter how much time is left. I still get goosebumps just remembering tying it up and probably waking up my entire neighbourhood screaming.
