Not disagreeing with you but I personally wouldn't put too much stock in this if I was a player. I mean, literally half of your games are played in a completely different rink. And we're not talking about fan amenities, we're presumably talking about the locker room, fitness centre, training facilities, and if applicable, a practice rink. I don't think these guys are spending much time outside of these areas, and I would assume the Flames facilities are at least comparable to others (the Dome may be old but I don't think there are issues with mold, sewage, etc.).
