For many years, Portland was often mentioned as a destination for the Flames if they ever left Calgary. Former Trailblazers owner, Paul Allen was rumoured to not be a hockey fan and had no interest in putting a team into his arena. Since his death, Allen's sister Jody now runs his organization.
With an NHL team, they could probably sell some more ads to cover up all the empty white space.
