I don't see anyone seeing this as a sure thing investment.

And you just dont hundreds of millions of dollars for something that "might just work"

i wouldn't completely rule it out. but i also wouldn't expect the provincial government to kick in that much, no matter who is in power.

you don't think Saputo's money could get a stadium built?

Why would Saputo compete against himself?

I'm assuming whomever looks into will be doing their due diligence and then some.

That whole website not working is unbelievable really.

Hi all. While I'm in the armchair GM mood, I wouldn't mind if they dangled a guy like Beaulieu for a guy like Simmonds. Losing Prust for 4 weeks could impede on our chances a the playoffs, bringing in a guy who's style is similar (more offensive upside) could help the Habs in the long run.

Not surprising in the least. Nothing works well in this country.

and even at that, im pretty sure he got a nice chunk of cash from Quebec City for that. and we're talking an MLS stadium, not MLB.

the problem is you need someone willing to front that money knowing that it's unlikely that the club will ever reap huge profits. it's high risk, low reward financially.

I would bet that we have many great American technology companies that would build and fix the pathetic ObamaCare website for ZERO dollars!

i think with the right stadium in the right location yeah. but it would be a market where after the 2-3 year honeymoon, the fans will only turn out if the team is competent. you're not going to get 27,000 on a Wednesday night if the team is 32-50.
