Ground has been broken on the renovations for Seattle’s Key Arena, while Ottawa’s downtown arena deal has seemingly fallen completely apart. So, what’s happening with the ongoing Calgary Flames arena saga?
For those of you just joining us, the Flames really started the legwork on a new arena after the June 2013 flood that submerged the first 11 rows of the Scotiabank Saddledome under portions of the Elbow River. In the meantime, arena deals have been completed in Edmonton (Rogers Place), Detroit (Little Caesars Arena), Las Vegas (T-Mobile Arena), Seattle (Seattle Center Arena) and Long Island (Belmont Park).
