The amount of money they would lose over a 5 year period would probably pay for the ####ing calgaryNEXT deal.
Really gross tactic by the Flames.

You do get that, if the Flames were to relocate, they would likely be selling to another group that will move it to... wherever.
Maybe the Seattle guys buy and get the Flames as a second tenant in their building.
Whatever - point is that it wouldn't be Edwards et al that would be moving the team.
