How many different places has this Flames farm team been located?

I know they were in Omaha for 2 years, then QC for 2 years, now Abby. Where were they before that?

They should just slap them in some town in New York like half the other league. looks like rochester and binghampton will be looking for a new parent.

I think you can add Moncton to that list before Salt Lake City. Wish they would come back to Salt Lake

Attendance last nite - 2703. Can't believe the team can stay there for long with the extra travel expenses. Wonder what the breakeven is for attendance figures?

The Heat are 23rd best attendance out of 29 teams. The Flames (and Heat) can't be too overly pleased so far.
