In fact, balzak isn't even a big deal. If I took stony trail I'd get to a rink in balzak about 5 minutes slower than my current commute to the dome. Besides, saving 5-10 minutes of driving to a sporting event is really a poor excuse to justify that much public money for something

I suspect you can say this because you don't in fact, have seasons tickets. Plus, notwithstanding there's no way that Balzac is a mere 5 minutes more - Stoney Trail or not (I drive Stoney on the west side at least once a week and it's a good 30 minutes without traffic from the Trans-Canada to CrossIron Mills), not everyone is just off of Stoney or Deerfoot.
Out of town arenas were a past concept that never panned out: Kanata, Glendale, etc.
