Yeah, even in this article he says, " Hansen and former Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer, who have agreed to partially fund construction of a new arena in Seattle's SoDo neighborhood south of Safeco Field, have said they have no interest in becoming majority owners of an NHL franchise".

He's strictly a NBA fan who would welcome the NHL to defray costs, but otherwise not interested.

Bettman may already have an investor though as I can't see him approaching city council without one.
