We can't let Edmonton continue to have superior sports facilities to Calgary. Nenschi's fingertrap bridge cost over $50 million so what is his huge objection to $200 million to be gained from redevelopment taxes. We need to go to CTV Calgary website and vote for Bettman (although I am not a Bettman fan).

As someone who goes to 90% of home games
No,we don't need a new hockey rink more than we need libraries
"But mom my brother has this shiny thing" is not a good enough reason to spend over 600 million dollars of our tax money during the worst recession in recent memory
