Much as I would like it if we had a state of the art awesome building...if that causes the Flames to move then so be it. I would still cheer for them. I am stupid enough that I would probably attend more games live if they were elsewhere! It would be fun.
Yeah part of the reason I was asking is that it has become way easier for people to follow a team that is outside their market. You can get every game somehow on television, and the internet also means you can find in-depth coverage.
So the only advantage of having the team in your own city is if you go to the games coupled with being around more like-minded fans.
So perhaps having the team actually here is just less important to people than it once was.
