Your opinion isn't based on reality. Just seems to be your own skewed perspective of the situation.

You state that the Flames ownership isn't interested in being part of the community. And yet, they continue to be involved in the community as much if not moreso than any NHL team.

And then you ignore additional facts that the Flames and City are actively negotiating for a new arena and state that the "community does not want to partner with the team".

Edwards is interested in money first and foremost, than that makes logical sense to me.
If that's the case why wouldn't he have sold already? Or sold to local investors?

By the way, you know that a lot of NHL owners don't live in the same city's as their team, right?

Having a contrary opinion is fine. Having a contrary opinion based on shaky evidence is less fine. Have a contrary opinion based on shaky evidence and claiming it as inevitable is not fine.

Perhaps you're the one that's not being realistic.
