Oh ok, I didn't realize they put up the Champion sign after the Tornado, Oil Capitol of Canada is a stretch, we all know the BIG decisions are made in Calgary. And I wonder why the Flames Org. has no problems signing there best players to long term contracts and why most of them stay in Calgary long after there playing careers are over. P.S. I was born in Edmonton but we quickly left for a better life in Calgary...
