My point wasn't me advocating for it though, I can't wrap my head around a non DT arena for the Flames or the city. Empty threat or even if it isn't, I'm going to be interested to see if the Flames look into these and mention them publicly, whether as a negotiation tactic or because they view them as a viable option.

The Senators have shown this just isn't a viable option. It's an empty threat and should always be treated as such.
Tsuu Tina might have the money behind them to pull something off, but both locations require so much parking to cannibalize any potential real estate development and kill the entertainment aspect. It also creates long travel distances for people with restricted mode share that will really hurt attendance during bleak times.
