My guess is that the options for the Stampeders are a. new stadium in conjunction with arena project b. stay in McMahon, maybe with upgrades.

I just can't see how anyone justifies building a new football stadium unless it is tied in with a much larger entertainment district project.
This is pretty much what the majority of people are speculating....there will be a large sports and entertainment complex with some extra ice, user areas for local use. At some point someone leaked a project valued over a billion which would mean more than just a rink for the Flames.

don't think anyone around here thinks there is a new football stadium unless part of a big picture project.
