How would they know - no one has talked in several months.

What seems lost is that the City/Mayor never discussed their offer as any sort of final offer. In fact, they explicitly said it was not a final offer and remained “at the table” open to talking to the Flames anytime. Flames left in a huff, lost election, haven’t returned. Just start talking again, it’s a new Council, a new time, new factors at play, including the Olympics bid becoming more real.
