The Oilers last year bought in 20 million more dollars and had a 24 million dollar operating income versus the Flames 8.
They went from 117 million in revenue in 2016 to 151 in 2017
Calgary went from 130 million in 2015 to 121 in 2016 to 129 last year.
So Edmonton showed a pretty significant increase in revenue and operating income when they moved to the new building.
Calgary's operating income in the last three years has dropped from 21 million to 5 million.
