Why does the City even need to counter with a model of their own? It's not the City's job to cover the Flames' incompetence. The City already has a model of their own...they want to build a separate fieldhouse and have spent millions on a West Village plan. If the Flames want to be a part of those plans they need to find a way to accommodate the City.

Remember, the Flames are still free to build this thing without any City involvement beyond clerical work. All they have to do is buy some land, file some permits, and pay for construction.

They've tried to turn this into a negotiation, when all it really is is an attempt at a handout.
