Miikka Kiprusoff along with two other former Flames Toni Lydman and Juuka Hentunen were inducted into the Finnish Hockey Hall of Fame today.
An idol for many Flames fans, Kipper will now be idolized in Tampere, Finland where the hall of fame is located.
Kipper’s career featured 319 wins, 44 shutouts, a .912 sv% and a 2.49GAA. He played with the Sharks for parts of four seasons before being traded to Calgary and becoming the best goalie in Flames franchise history.
Kipper provided us fans with that amazing run in the 2003-04 season after coming over from the Sharks, leading the Flames all the way to the Cup Final, a run that will be forever etched into minds of Flames fans.
