- The 2007–08 Calgary Flames season was the 28th season for the Calgary Flames and 36th season for the Flames franchise in the National Hockey League (NHL). In a surprise move, the Flames announced on June 14 that Jim Playfair would be replaced by "Iron" Mike Keenan as the team's head coach. Playfair remains with the Flames as an associate coach. Keenan entered the season sixth all-time in the NHL in wins. The trend of spending too much money on defencemen begins, with Sutter overpaying for Cory Sarich in free agency and acquiring Adrian Aucoin (and his $4 million annual salary) in a trade. Owen Nolan, Anders Eriksson, and Mark Smith. are all brought in as GM Sutter's free-agent reclamation projects, but these aging veterans do little and nothing for the team. Sutter is unable to come to terms with Mark Giordano, and the highly rated prospect heads to the Dynamo Moscow in Russia instead of the NHL. Sports writer observes that "The team looks like it has no direction — and no confidence in an unpredictable coach". At the end of the regular season, Miikka Kiprusoff's goals against average of 2.69 is his worst ever as a Flame. In the playoffs, the team falls to the Sharks in seven games in the first round. (en)
