After that whole "buy our season tickets or we'll move" debacle, I doubt the owners would ever pull that stunt again. I think a lot of fans let bygones be bygones because the team was hurting so bad, and much of it was the dollars fault.
I say they are munching popcorn right now, in full Oilers gear, with Katz #1 on the back. Let the goof ball get the Tar and Feather, and when civic officials give in, and they will (what else goes on in Etown on a -30 Jan night?), the Flames will announce their fully complete plan for a new arena.
In the event he loses, Flames shrug and cough up the bill. They have enough dough if they must part with it.
