I have a solution to Edmonton's 'lacking funds' issue.

As I see it, they only need to come up with $55M more right? And Katz gets all the profits right?

So, get Katz to float the cash and then as soon as the arena is built with an appx 20,000 person capacity, get the NHL to schedule the Stanley Cup champs for the first game and charge $2,750 each for beer.

Presto! Paid for.
