No, because the answer to that is obvious, but the NHL isn't going to disappear because the Flames don't get their arena publicly funded. On a higher level, the local economy isn't going to be effected either because like Cliff said, people don't just save the money they intended to spend. They're still Westerners who spend spend spend.
