Am I missing something? Why is this even a possible scenario/needed at this point? There is zero indication the Flames owners are selling so no, of course another group stepping forward hasn't happened.
If one, two, or all owners wasn't to sell the team would be kept local. A guy Brett Wilson tried to be into the Flames before getting 5% of the Predators. You know he'd love to ditch that measly percentage for a much larger stake in his own team. Hell maybe Uber founder, Calgarian and seven billion dollar man wants a piece of his former local team.
I'll also reiterate.. the team can't relocate without the approval of the BOG, something that won't happen, new owners or not.
