No, CSEC is saying that building CalgaryNext will cost $330 million less than building separate facilities, so they're basically playing with the numbers to make it look like the city will get what they've planned to spend $200 million for already (but still unbudgeted) with the added bonus of a new stadium for the Stamps that won't cost any extra.
If you split CalgaryNext into three separate buildings, they say the cost goes from $890 million to $1.2 billion.
They didn't give an estimate for what it would cost to build the fieldhouse/stadium as one stand-alone facility and the arena/event centre as another. Presumably, it would be somewhere between $890 million and $1.2 billion.
