The Olympics is also the only way I see the Flames getting their wish in terms of building in the WV unless they really pony up some serious cash. The only problem is that the 2026 winner will only be selected in 2019. Can the Flames wait that long? Or are they better off moving to Plan B now.

That is a distinct possibility. Would definitely get the fed support it would need and get the site remediated on the fed dime. Good suggestion. I think the Flames could wait that long. I think they are in for the right facility, not a facility right now.
