NHL DID YOU KNOW? ATLANTA/CALGARY FLAMES EDITION #nhl #calgaryflames #atlanta #civilwar #calgary
Welcome in to NHL Did You Know…
Each video will highlight random but interesting facts about every NHL team all in under 60 seconds! Original Atlanta Flames owner Tom Cousins named the team the “Flames” after the fire resulting from the March to the Sea in the American Civil War by General William Tecumseh Sherman, in which Atlanta was nearly destroyed in 1864.
four Flames, Lanny MacDonald (9), Jarome Iginla (12), Mike Vernon (30) and Mikka Kiprusoff (34) have their numbers retired in the rafters.
