Brian Burke just talked about a new downtown arena again. I was still living in the Ottawa area when the Senators were looking to move out of the Civic Centre into a new building and I remember how the NIMBYism was just brutal. The original plan was to build an arena in the city centre but they couldn't get it done so they had to build it out in Siberia (Kanata) instead and now some people are bitching about how long it takes to get to and from games. They should have got it right the first time!
Hell, people have been bitching about how far it is since day one.

“ok Matt, I want you to stay with this team as we move into a period of no hope, no playoffs, and no rink. And I want you to take less than market value to do so. What say you? Heeeyyyyyy!? HEEEEYYYYYY!??!
This team is essentially playing Russian roulette by sticking your fingers into electrical outlets and hoping the resulting shock doesn’t launch you out the window into a dumpster filled with land mines.
Huh. That's some visual. And I can even picture the flaming snes sweater.
