on second look, there may be some different reasoning for this. Ottawa has a bid process for it, so renderings are key right off the bat. Calgary Flames are not bidding against anyone, so renders are less important in the scheme of their proposal.

I think my comment still stands, though.
I think this situation is completely different and a bit of a mess. There are two groups:

DCDLS - Backed by two Quebec billionaires who are also trying to acquire the Sens from Eugene Melnyk. Melnyk has stated publicly he will not sell the team or play in the arena built in this proposal.

RLG - Supported by Melnyk. Estimated at a $3.5B three decade development.


And there is zero information of how these proposals are to be funded. Or is it implied 100% private?
