My guess is that Nenshi will come out today and reiterate what he's said in the past then will say the city will still be here when the Flames are ready to resume negotiations. The Flames will probably snipe back. Then nothing will happen for a few days.
After that, they either decide the plan has backfired and just shut up, or they decide to go whole hog and King burns what little credibility he has left trying to keep this an issue right up to October 16. Then another period of quiet until some time in November or December when the Flames announce they will resume talks with the "new" city council.

My guess....
Nenshi will come out and state he supports the Arena and believes its provides huge benefit...
However he will also make a statement about public money....
I don't believe the Flames will be the one to come back to the table.
Owners are dictating the process not Ken King.
They are extremely experienced at this type of thing....
