He'd be a great fit with the Oil Kings and would love the challenge. Plus he knows the city well because of his Golden Bears experience.Regan Bartelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06156188149671632288noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37271484.post-24814968520804653362007-05-25T08:36:00.000-06:002007-05-25T08:36:00.000-06:00Good question.

We don't have the large western canadian firms knocking on the door. My guess is that it will be a local oil company or a Agri-business like an ag dealership that will step up.<BR/><BR/>If was the City I would approach Husky Oil in Calgary. They operate in these parts and definetly have the $$ to make things happen.

I happen to know that there was a company in a Western Canadian WHL market that was willing to fork over $300,000 for a 10 year term for a multi-plex arena used for rec hockey. I would think that the range for the CC naming rights should be in the range of $150,000 - $200,000 over a three year term. Think of the "free" advertising a company can gain across a wide variety of geographic markets. I think a company will step up and pay that kind of money.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
