To be fair the owners haven't threatened anything yet. My point is that in the near future they could sell the team for a lot of money and be done with the headache of dealing with the city.
In 2006 the Supersonics had a local Seattle owner and a minor stadium dispute, two years later their team was gone. It's fine to have a hardline stance against ANY public funding but don't pretend that its a certainty the Flames stay here.
