The Calgary Flames are a professional hockey team based in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. They are members of the Northwest Division of the Western Conference in the National Hockey League (NHL). Since their arrival in 1980, nearly 400 players have worn the Flames jersey for at least one regular season or playoff game. The Flames have won the Stanley Cup once, in 1989, and four players have been elected into the Hockey Hall of Fame; the most recent electee is Jarome Iginla, who was enshrined in 2021.

Jarome Iginla is a former Flames captain, and the franchise's all-time leading point scorer.

Fourteen players have served as the captain of the Calgary Flames, beginning with Brad Marsh in 1980–81.[1] Doug Risebrough, Jim Peplinski and Lanny McDonald served together as co-captains in the 1980s; the latter two led the Flames to the 1989 Stanley Cup.[2] The team's longest serving player, is Jarome Iginla. Iginla joined the Flames for the 1996 Stanley Cup playoffs and, as of 2013, is the Flames' all-time leader in games played, points and goals scored. Currently, the Flames captaincy is held by Mikael Backlund, who was named to the position prior to the start of the 2023-24 NHL season.[3]
