Thing is, Flames can’t control the weather or the entertainment options in the city. But they sure as hell can create a first class organization. And that’s not just about facilities. And while lots to debate about a new arena, I don’t see anyone saying CSEC has done everything possible to move the issue forward.

I guess the takeaway is taxpayers need to hurry up and get a massive indoor golf complex built
