Ehh, not really.
The Saddledome obviously won't be competing for the Flames, Hitmen or Roughnecks. And the Saddledome already can't compete for major concerts. A lot of what does come now uses toned down rigging that most promoters won't choose to do when there is a superior alternative across the street. So what's going to be left? 12-20 events a year? The city would be losing money hand over fist operating the building at that level of usage. We're simply not large enough for two 19,000 seat arenas.
