The Calgary Wranglers are a professional ice hockey team based in Calgary, that began play in the 2022–23 American Hockey League (AHL) season. The team plays at the Scotiabank Saddledome, the home of their NHL affiliate team, the Calgary Flames.

History

On May 23, 2022, the Calgary Flames announced the relocation of the Stockton Heat as the Calgary Flames wanted their AHL team to be closer to their home in Calgary.[1] They played their first game on October 16, 2022, a 6–5 loss against the Coachella Valley Firebirds.[2][3] On August 2, 2022, the team announced its name, bringing back the "Wranglers" moniker used by the WHL team of the same name from 1977 to 1987.[4]
