(Ryan appeared in the second hour of Tuesday’s show.)

Ryan and Jeff dove deep on the history and context for the arena deal, the points of contention, where things went astray, and where things go from here. They also chatted about the Flames’ red-hot start on the ice and their upcoming three game measuring stick series of games with Florida, Tampa Bay and Carolina.
