The Flames will also be hosting four cultural celebrations this season. This includes the following theme nights:
- January 11 vs. LA Kings – Indigenous Celebration
- January 30 vs. Anaheim Ducks – Lunar New Year Celebration
- February 23 vs. San Jose Sharks – Black History Celebration
- April 5 vs. Vegas Golden Knights – South Asian Celebration
Fans won’t have to wait long to get in on the fun as the first theme night of the season will be the home opener on October 12 against the Philadelphia Flyers. There will also be several staples returning next season, including:
- November 21 vs. New York Rangers – Hockey Fights Cancer
- December 14 vs. Florida Panthers – Night of Giving
- January 23 vs. Buffalo Sabres – Canadian Armed Forces Appreciation Night
- March 8 vs. Montreal Canadiens – Women in Sport
- March 14 vs. Colorado Avalanche – Pride Night
- April 13 vs. San Jose Sharks – Fan Appreciation
It’s expected to be another tough season for a Flames team in transition. While playoffs may seem like a longshot at this point, fans should be able to get a good look at some of the young talent the team has acquired who are expected to help return the Flames to their winning ways.
That includes goaltender Dustin Wolf, players like Connor Zary and Matt Coronato, and potentially someone like Zayne Parekh.
Tickets for all these theme nights can be purchased by heading to the Flames website.
