PROFILE |
 |
The Calgary Flames have come a long way in nearly three decades, and that's not just whistling Dixie. The team, founded as the Atlanta Flames, has reached the Stanley Cup finals twice since moving to Canada in 1980. Real estate developer Tom Cousins helped bring hockey to the Peach State in 1972, but a downturn in land prices forced him to sell the Flames to Canadian oil baron Nelson Skalbania in 1980. The team faced off against the Montreal Canadiens twice for the Cup in the 1980s, winning the title in 1989. The team's current slate of nine owners, which includes five with 15% stakes, also operates the Pengrowth Saddledome.
