You mean as opposed to the current ownership, who have shown that they're willing to spend to the cap every year for the team to be competitive? Guess most people just conveniently forget the 90's and early 2000's, when Flames were pretty much a glorified farm team for big market teams. This from a city of about 1M population. I don't know what else people want from owners.
And for the people who talk about Flames leaving as no big deal. Ask the people of Quebec how awesome it is to not have a team? The basically fully funded a $400M with public money to build an arena, as opposed to having a partner willing to put in 50%+.
