In the history of the Flames franchise, 606 players have tugged a red sweater over their heads and suited up for a regular season game. Of those, 22 played just a single game for either the Calgary or Atlanta Flames. We call them One Game Wonders.
Let’s talk about another One Game Wonder, Shawn Heaphy.
An Ontario kid, Heaphy was drafted into the OHL but stayed in junior B instead and then headed to collge. He spent four seasons with the Michigan State University Spartans, getting drafted by the Flames in the 1989 supplemental draft. He finished school and signed with the Flames after his senior year.
