The Flames had many of their best seasons during the 1980s. Unfortunately for fans in Calgary, Alberta’s other team, the Edmonton Oilers, dominated the league for much of the decade. The playoffs were set up so that Calgary and Edmonton would almost certainly face each other in the first two rounds.
The Flames were major underdogs against the Oilers in the second round of the 1986 playoffs. The Oilers were looking for their third straight Stanley Cup and were the league’s best team during the regular season. The Flames stretched the series to a Game 7. Five minutes into the third period of a tied game, Oilers defenseman Steve Smith scored an infamous own-goal that ended up winning the series for Calgary. The Flames eventually advanced to their first Stanley Cup Final, but they were defeated by the Montreal Canadiens.
Fortunately, the Flames didn’t have to wait too long for a rematch. Both Calgary and Montreal reached the Stanley Cup Final again in 1989. This time, the Flames—who had stacked their roster with players like Joe Nieuwendyk, Theoren Fleury, Doug Gilmour, and Mike Vernon--came out on top and won their first Stanley Cup.
Long-time Flames Captain Jarome Iginla led the team to the Stanley Cup Final again in 2004. The Flames faced the Tampa Bay Lightning. Iginla famously fought Tampa’s Vincent Lecvalier, and the Flames took a 3-2 lead in the series but lost in Game 6 after a heartbreaking Lightning goal in double overtime. The Flames could not recover and lost Game 7 to Tampa Bay.

Buying Calgary Flames postseason tickets isn’t just about attending another game—it’s about experiencing something bigger. Here’s what makes postseason special compared to the regular season, and why it’s worth securing tickets early:
Higher stakes and intensity: Postseason Flames games are when every action counts. The pressure is on, the matchups more meaningful, and the atmosphere electric. If you want to see critical plays, clutch moments, and possibly history being made, this is where it happens.
Scarcity and urgency: There are fewer postseason games, and demand shoots up fast. Premium seats fill up quickly. Buying tickets early means better choice in seating, avoiding inflated resale prices, and locking in your spot before the buzz drives them higher.
Exclusive perks and priority: Ticket holders often get extras that regular-season attendees don’t always get: priority access to purchase playoff tickets (especially if you’re a season-ticket or membership holder), exclusive merchandise, special events, themed game nights, or upgraded amenities (parking, entrance, etc.).
Memorable atmosphere and fan energy: The crowd is more invested, the media presence greater, and the tension more palpable. Postseason Flames games tend to be more electric—fans are louder, anticipation is higher, and the emotional payoff is bigger.
Opportunity to witness defining moments: These are the Calgary Flames fans talk about for years. Comebacks, championships, career highlights—postseason is when legacies are built. If you want to be there for those moments, this is your chance.
Better value in some cases: Even though the tickets might cost more, when balanced against what you get (intensity, perks, memorable experience), many fans find postseason Flames tickets fetch greater value per dollar compared to regular season games, especially when you consider resale value or experiential payoff.
If the Calgary Flames postseason game is rained out, either your ticket remains valid for the rescheduled event, or you get a full refund if it’s canceled. SeatGeek keeps you updated every step of the way and ensures you’re always protected.
