Grey Cup visits Flames NHL game
The Calgary Stampeders took their new hardware out for a spin at the Scotiabank Saddledome, home of the National Hockey League’s Flames, on Wednesday night.
Members of the 106th Grey Cup-winning Stamps were celebrated during an on-ice ceremony prior to puck drop between the Flames and Dallas Stars.

The Flames and Stamps are part of the same Calgary Sports & Entertainment family, and the former sent a number of positive tweets to the latter in the run-up to Sunday’s Grey Cup.
Calgary’s hockey team also ran a quick in-game poll, discovering the majority of fans believe Stamps linebacker Alex Singleton would be the best hockey player on the CFL team’s roster.
during this timeout, how ’bout a poll? which @calstampeders player would be the best hockey player?

With Calgary’s NHL team currently atop the Pacific Division standings — early in the season, granted — there might just be a double-dip in store for Calgary sports fans this year.
