I agree with you. But if people don't want the Flames to play hardball, they should motivate their city counsel to also be more co-operative.

A project of this size and scope does not happen without the support of government. The Bow/Crowchild situation needs to be dealt with - no better time for the city than as part of a project like this. Rail and bus line needs to be incorporated, etc.

These things are not the responsibility of the arena, they are city planning issues. Lumping it all under the guise of 'handouts to the rich' is mind-numbingly obtuse.
