For the purposes of discussion that expense has been paid for. In comparing the value/cost of getting a new car you take the current value of the used car not the original value of the used car.
So the Saddledome is worth 0 dollars (and in fact is likely a liability) once a new arena is open. So 600 million is the correct comparison. Actually the number should be more than 600 million once you account for debt servicing costs.
