If they dont want it there, then there really is nothing to say at this point and no matter how they word that, the viotrol we are seeing in this very thread will only multiply.
My guess is that ownership knows where the pressure lies on the Olympic Bid now and there is absolutely no way that the bid is awarded without a new arena or all the major events taking place in Rexall...which no one will support in a plebicite/referendum. So ownership is just playing the long game and will see what happens down the line.
It's just business.
