Just call it the Olympic Corral and maybe that will be enough name cachet for the Davis Cup big wigs.

If they don't need to have the surface in there much earlier (the Flames play Wed), and the Roughnecks could be bumped, the Saddledome is free from Thursday until Tuesday that weekend.

Yeah, Toronto/Montreal is probably the better bet...but I'd likley go if it was in Calgary and I think a lot of casual fans would as well.
