The Flames history begins in 1968, when businessman Tom Cousins and former Georgia governor Carl Sanders brought the third major professional sports franchise to the city, buying the NBA's St. Louis Hawks and moving them to Atlanta. The Colorado Rockies were a professional Ice hockey team in the National Hockey League (NHL that played in Denver Colorado from 1976 to Thomas Grady Cousins (born December 1931 is a prominent Real estate developer primarily in Atlanta Georgia.

The Hawks were in need of a venue suitable for professional sports. As a result one was built for them: the Omni Coliseum. The Omni Coliseum, usually called The Omni, from the Latin for "all" or "every" was an indoor arena located in Atlanta, Georgia This new facility, owned by Cousins and the rest of the Omni Sports Group consortium, was the crux of the expansion bid made to the National Hockey League for a new hockey franchise.

It was announced in November 1971, nine months to the day after the Omni's construction was complete, that hockey was headed to the South: the National Hockey League granted an expansion franchise to Cousins' group for the 1972–73 NHL season.

When it was first announced that Atlanta would have an NHL franchise many hockey observers thought that a team based in the southern United States was a ludicrous and foolish move, especially since the talent pool had been diluted by repeated expansion and the upstart WHA. The United States of America —commonly referred to as the Nevertheless, the team quickly began front office operations, naming young Blues assistant general manager Cliff Fletcher as general manager.

Bernard Joseph André Geoffrion ( February 16 1931 – March 11 2006) nicknamed " Boom Boom " was a Quebec professional

The team was a pleasant surprise in its first season on the ice, its success built on new star goaltenders Dan Bouchard and Phil Myre, solid defencemen such as Randy Manery and Pat Quinn, and forwards Rey Comeau, (captain) Keith McCreary, Larry Romanchych and Bob Leiter.

Events 1419 - Hundred Years' War: Rouen surrenders to Henry V of England completing his reconquest of Normandy. The 1972–73 NHL season was the 56th season of the National Hockey League. Unfortunately, they lost 19 of their last 31 games, finishing out of the playoffs. Part of the problem as that in defiance of all geographic reality, the Flames were placed in the West Division--saddling them with some of the longest road trips in the league. However, their 65 points were 35 better than the Islanders, who toiled at the bottom of the East Division.

On- and off-ice success continued into the Flames' second season, drafting forwards Tom Lysiak and Eric Vail, who quickly became the team's top forwards. Thomas James Lysiak (born April 22, 1953 in High Prairie Alberta) is a former professional Ice hockey player Eric "Freight Train" Vail (born September 16, 1953 in Schumacher Ontario) is a retired Canadian professional Ice hockey Lysiak led the Flames in scoring in his rookie season, upon which the team improved to fourth in the West Division and their first playoff berth. In contrast, the Islanders had another wretched season. Unfortunately they were quickly dispatched in the first round, being swept in the best-of-seven series against the powerful Philadelphia Flyers. The Philadelphia Flyers are a professional Ice hockey team based in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

The Flames' third season, 1974–75, was marked by disappointment as the team failed to qualify for the post-season. The 1974–75 NHL season was the 58th season of the National Hockey League. Unlike the 1973 NHL Amateur Draft, in which Fletcher had picked immediate success from Lysiak, 1974's was notably unsuccessful (the only notable players being Guy Chouinard, the youngest draft pick ever taken, and prospect defenceman Pat Ribble).

The on-ice play improved the following season under the demanding Creighton, as the Flames recorded their first winning season, and qualified for the playoffs once again. Lysiak continued to lead the team in scoring, while Cliff Fletcher added depth at all positions, acquiring tough veteran forward Bill Clement, WHA product Claude St. Sauveur, scoring forward Bill Flett and stalwart defenceman Larry Carriere.

Vail's sophomore season was unfortunately cut short by injury. Again, the team bowed out of the post-season quickly, losing to the Los Angeles Kings in the first round. The Los Angeles Kings are a professional ice hockey team based in Los Angeles California. Signs of trouble off the ice appeared for the first time as well. Average attendance at the Omni had dropped by 1,000.

1976–77 was marked by the addition noteworthy prospects from the minor league affiliate in Tulsa. The 1976–77 NHL season was the 60th season of the National Hockey League. Talented forward Guy Chouinard had finally matured into an NHL-caliber player, and tough defenceman Ken Houston and forward Willi Plett began terrorizing opponents with their physical play.

By 1977 outstanding young goaltender Dan Bouchard had publicly stated his desire to be the clear starting goaltender for the club, refusing to share duties with Myre. The 1977–78 NHL season was the 61st season of the National Hockey League. In 1978 Myre was traded to the Blues, Cliff Fletcher's former employer, along with high-scoring forward Curt Bennett and tough blueliner Barry Gibbs for scoring forward Bob MacMillan and defenceman Dick Redmond. Curt Alexander Bennett (born March 27, 1948 in Regina, Saskatchewan but raised in Cranston, Rhode Island) is a former Barry Gibbs (born September 28, 1948 in Lloydminster Saskatchewan) is a former professional Ice hockey defenceman.

Attendance continued to fall, another 1,500 a night. Post-season success continued to elude the young Flames, as they were easily dispatched once again in the preliminary round.

1978–79 began with an impressive 12–1–2 record, the product of a 10-game winning streak. The 1978–79 NHL season was the 62nd season of the National Hockey League. While this pace did not continue throughout the rest of the season, the Flames finished 41–31–8, good for 90 points -- a new team record. While Lysiak contributed greatly to the early streak he became injured for the first time in his career, slowing his point production. He was dealt to the Chicago Blackhawks as part of a seven-man trade which saw the Flames acquire talented Yugoslavian center Ivan Boldirev, quick forward Darcy Rota, and staunch defenceman Phil Russell. Ivan Boldirev (born August 16, 1949 in Zrenjanin, SR Serbia, SFR Yugoslavia (now Serbia) is a retired Serbian- Darcy Rota (born February 16, 1953 in Vancouver, British Columbia) is a retired professional Ice hockey player who spent eleven seasons Notable persons named Phil Russell or Philip Russell include Phil Russell (ice hockey (born 1952, Canadian ice hockey player Phil Russell Chouinard finished the season with 50 goals, the first and only Atlanta Flame to reach the plateau, while MacMillan won the Lady Byng Memorial Trophy.

1979–80 would prove to be the last season in Atlanta. The 1979–80 NHL season was the 63rd season of the National Hockey League. The Flames' lack of success in the playoffs led to the end of Fred Creighton's reign as head coach, replaced by Al MacNeil. Allister Wences MacNeil (born September 27 1935 in Sydney, Nova Scotia, Canada) is a former NHL player and coach Fletcher added more talent, including outstanding Swede Kent Nilsson from the WHA, rookie defenceman Paul Reinhart, Finnish defenceman Pekka Rautakallio and veteran forward Don Lever.

Off-ice, the Omni Sports Group found it increasingly difficult to financially maintain the team, as ticket sales fell and operating costs rose. The team also lacked a major television deal. Also, while Omni Sports had hoped to attract an NHL team to the Omni early on, their calculations didn't include a second league in the picture. Under the circumstances, Cousins and the rest of his consortium were very receptive to an offer from a group of Calgary businessmen fronted by Canadian entrepreneur Nelson Skalbania. Nelson M Skalbania (born February 12, 1938) is a flamboyant Canadian businessman from Vancouver, British Columbia best known for Cousins sold the team for a then-NHL record $16 million, and the franchise was promptly moved to Calgary.

The Flames made the playoffs in six of their first eight seasons, a mark bettered only by the Quebec Nordiques, Edmonton Oilers, and New York Rangers in the entire history of the NHL, and the team would not post a losing record after the 1974 season.

The Stanley Cup (La Coupe Stanley is an Ice hockey club championship Trophy, awarded annually to the National Hockey League (NHL playoffs champion The 1985–86 NHL season was the 69th season of the National Hockey League.

Calgary's acknowledgement of the Atlanta Flames history

In 1996, the Calgary Flames acknowledged the 25th anniversary of the franchise by changing the "A" worn by the alternate captains to the Atlanta Flames logo. The 1996–97 NHL season was the 80th Regular season of the National Hockey League. The logo was used again the following season, but did not return for 1998–99, as Calgary changed their jerseys, and the "A" style used on their black jersey (the third jersey from the previous season) was carried over to the new uniforms. The 1998–99 NHL season was the 82nd regular season of the National Hockey League. Public opinion, however, favored the Atlanta "A", and it made its return the following season.

While yellow remains part of the Calgary Flames' color scheme, black has been incorporated into the Atlanta "A". On the 1996 home jersey and current road jersey (both white), the "A" is red with a black border; on the 1996 road jersey, the "A" was white with a black border; on the black alternate jersey (the road jersey from 1998–2003), the "A" is white with a red border; on the current red home jersey, the "A" is black with a white border, to match the black "Flaming C" logo.
