He isn't really saying anything here other than they want to get a new arena...period.
Correct...he's saying they'll move to a worse market and likely cost themselves the exact same amount of amount and likely more in the long term than it would cost for them to build the arena themselves. Moving, unless it's to become Toronto 2, is the very definition of cutting off your nose to spite your face. If they wanna go with this bluff, call it and force them to lose the money. Cause they will lose money, possibly a lot of money.
