Please explain. I am not arguing I am just a firm believer that past behaviour is the best predictor of future behaviour and the owners have green lit several relocations. I think This isn’t just about a team moving this is all the owners making a statement that if the public works will not support arenas in a cost structure they will move to an area that does. It sets a precedent for how they want to run the business going forward and shows that they are in control not the municipality. I would think approving a team like Calgary to move only improves their position in the future when it comes to them needing a new arena.
Again I am not arguing because I am far from an expert in this and I would love to hear why you so strongly think the owners would NEVER allow the team to move so I can be more informed on the subject.
