With the clock now ticking on Bill Smith's donor list becoming public, it's really the Flames who need to be extending olive branches, because that nearly 50% number could easily become nearly 65% or more once we see the donor list.

But if they really are dead set on the Edmonton deal at a minimum (and based off what we've seen reported, they want even more than that), they probably will wait until 2021 and hope Bill Smith Jr or Bill Smith III or whoever wants to hand them an arena gets another crack at becoming mayor.

Also, as always has to be asked, you are cool with the guaranteed 20% at a minimum price increase in the new arena right? Cause if not, ummm, yeah...
Are you sure you know what plurality means?
