I like how king somehow thinks cnext was 50/50. It was 850/400 plus no tax.

Per this article it appears the flames want 50/50 plus another 11 million per year in tax subsidy plus they don't address who will contribute land/infrastructure or if it's included in the price. (I bet it's the city)

So presuming land is included the flames offer as best I can tell is 300 million plus 8-11 million per year in tax breaks. At that price I am out.

Also funny King whining that the city is releasing its offer to embarrass him after he brought Gary in to try to Russia the Civic Election.

If Kings math is as good here as it was CNext the end result is likely 66/33 or worse.
