Time for owners who are in Calgary for the long haul regardless of an ideal building or not.

In fairness, nearly everyone in the ownership group has been so for about a quarter century or more - Byron Seaman is actually an original owner from 1980. Edwards and Libin both bought in in 1994, right when the economics of the NHL were going to hell. They have already proven they are in it for the long haul. That's not the problem here. The problem is their stupidly hamfisted negotiation tactics.
