This is my issue here: there is a deal that both CSEC and the City of Calgary agreed to. CSEC, by report, is trying to add scope to the deal and get the city to pay for half of it, but that's a change to the original scope - so THAT IS ON THE FLAMES.

So, if the Flames want to blow up the deal - and it's them who are trying to make a change - the cost to the Flames here is not worth shutting down the project entirely. The city already agreed to their initial demands. And if the Flames threaten to leave over this, fine, go ahead. But the NHL should really caution supporting that notion when there is already an agreement in place.
