I'd love to wager a bet with you, that Gary's next comments relating specifically to Calgary's arena situation, aren't about the NHLBoG approving the Flames move, but I imagine you also love money too much.

I don't think the Olympic's matter at the moment.
Calgary financials in the last Forbes magazine showed that there was very little profit or after cost income.
There will be a reshuffling of franchises instead of expansion.
You're right they might not, but at the same time the relationship between the Flames and the city is pretty much broken, and that's on both parties.
The nuclear option is there to use it, and I think at some point that key is going to be turned.
But reading Calgary4Life's post and having this expectation that the Flames ownership are going to crawl back to Nenshi and the city is foolish, its never going to happen.
