Who didn’t love those Atlanta Flames jerseys? Even though they were a competitive team with a few very talented players, they left for Calgary where they have been since.
*** EDIT *** It was opening day for the Sabres, but the Flames actually played their first game the day before against the Islanders, who were also starting in the league.

That's the first game ever played by the Atlanta Flames. October 8, 1972. Buffalo won 5-3.
