The NHL has been around for a very long time; at the time of writing, it is 106 years old. The Calgary Flames entered the league in 1972, originally operating out of Atlanta, Georgia as the Atlanta Flames. They operated for eight seasons there until financial difficulties forced their owner to sell the team to a group of Calgary businessmen. That group moved the Flames to “Cowtown” before the 1980-81 season. The flaming ‘a’ was changed to a flaming ‘c’, season tickets were sold by the thousands, and a new era began. The first stretch of the new-era Flames was immensely successful; the team qualified for the Stanley Cup playoffs every season from 1980-81 until 1988-89.

No, pallet shelters for people experiencing homelessness don’t fold into caskets. It’s a question a reader posed one of the first times I wrote about pallet shelters. I find the pallet shelters to be more palatable than ice fishing tents. The Colorado Village Collaborative operates both micro-communities and the so-called Safe Outdoor Spaces with the tents. We all learned the tents are not safe when a fire roared through a CVC Safe Outdoor Space, destroying the compound quickly. Officials never disclosed a cause of the fire.
