So by that metric, 15 teams would be lining up to relocate to Calgary. |
Not a single team would be looking to move to Calgary without a new rink, not one. Any potential move would be blocked by the NHL Board of Governors.
The Flames 18M in profit would be a pittance of the actual cost to move a franchise here, not that operating profit has anything to do with NHL team ownership anyways.
