The Irrelevant Ownership Bid
This blog is written mostly tongue in cheek. Some points may be informative. Please provide your feedback.
If you suffer from self-irrelevancy, please seek professional advice.
Hello. My sympathies to Jim Balsillie for his efforts in purchasing the Nashville Predators. While his offering price of $238 million is attractive, his bid is irrelevant.
Why? Because Balsillie is interested in moving the Predators to the Southern Ontario market. After being thwarted in his Pittsburgh Penguins attempt, Balsillie has been very blunt in indicating he wants to move Nashville to Hamilton or Kitchener.
The NHL front office would be thrilled if he was staying in Nashville, or moving to KC or LAs Vegas. But another team in Southern Ontario? No way.
The other thing the NHL doesn't like about Balsillie is his forward thinking. The NHL proved once again they want to stay in the dark ages by electing Jeremy Jacobs, the Boston Bruins owner who has driven the franchise into the ground, as the Chairman of the Board of Governors. Not exactly Mr. Progressive.
It's too bad Mr. Balsillie's bid is irrelevant. Maybe he can start his own league.
Regards,
Irrelevant
