I do find it hilarious that this thread isn't filled with people calls g for the team to be moved. Why is that? Canadian based teams get an extra benefit of the doubt? The recent NJ thread certainly didn't get the same response.

I find it hilarious that in the 1st paragraph you answered the question you posed in the 2nd paragraph. Nobody's calling for the Sens to be moved because nobody believes Melnyk.
Besides not really believing Melnyk, he bought the team for $92 million and Forbes values the Sens at $220 million. Even if he has put $94 million into the Sens in addition to his original $92 million purchase price, he's still $30 to $40 million to the good.
