^^ and to you Resolute, I think there is a major difference in the City building and owning a field house and them giving money to the Flames Organization to build and own a field house.

I don't think that the Flames would be sking for $200 million from the city without providing any benefit to the city. I think it's more that the Flames knew the city was already talking about a similar project, and it a matter of pooling resources so that the city still gets what it was planning, and the Flames don't have to build redundancy - they just have to pay the incremental cost to make the facility big enough to suit the Stamp's needs.
