Great news for fans but probably not so great for the Flames seeing TSN will be their only option and they are not guaranteed the returns they received from Rogers. That said does walking away mean they aren't even going to entertain covering the Flames or simply at cost their current deal? If they are walking away completely then the Flames only have one place to go and I imagine TSN will be receptive but they are a more prudent operation and will pay what they deem market and not above. That said the Flames are a bigger market than Winnipeg so I have to imagine they will have considerable interest. No idea who the next PBP crew would be but at the very least the intermissions would be a considerable upgrade.
