Im pretty sure the Jets owner Mark Chipman is the wealthiest, no? He is apparently at 23 billion.

Edit- david thomson, not mark chipman.

You're thinking of their other owner David Thomson. Richest man in Canada.

Murray is one of the wealthiest of the owners.

Edwards is worth a lot less compared to the other owners then I thought he would be the way people on here talk about what deep pockets the team has.

Murray Edwards is "only" worth $2 billion.

This list from January has Riddell at $3.4B and Edwards at $2.8B: http://www.canadianbusiness.com/list...anadians-2015/

They're the only two members of the Flames' ownership group on the list of the top 100 richest Canadians (although, I'm sure the rest of the owners are doing okay for themselves).

The rumour is that he wasn't able to raise even half the money he needed.
Shades of David Spano.

The recent oil crash has probably hit their net worth. But to what extent I don't know.
