This coming May is the 40th anniversary of the Atlanta Flames moving to Calgary. To commemorate this occasion, we’re counting down the Top 40 Calgary Flames in history.
Coming in at #31 is Jamie Macoun
It’s safe to say that most longtime Flames fans have a level of general awareness about Macoun. He was on the 1989 Stanley Cup team. He was part of the Doug Gilmour trade. He had a sweet mustache.
But while Macoun arguably wasn’t the biggest name on the ’89 Cup team – playing with Al MacInnis, Gary Suter and Brad McCrimmon will make you seem secondary – he was quietly one of the most effective players on the Flames for the better part of a decade.
