Seriously though
If true, it would be interesting for sure. Many on this board have mentioned a desire to change ownership. I’m not a huge fan of Edwards really but I could see this leaving a bit of a void in the NHL owners group. Hasn’t he been a rather active member?
Also
I wonder who this “ bigger name in the Alberta Hockey community” might be
|
He is the most active member, not just with the Flames, but he was also hands on with the NHL when negotiating the CBAs with the NHLPA. He also has by far, the largest net worth of all the owners.

Let’s see
The new ownership group (if true of course) will be a bizarre combination of Lanny, the Sutter brothers, Wayne Gretzky and Bill Comrie

The Jet’s David Thomson is far wealthier I believe. *I thought you were referring to all NHL owners but upon re-reading I think you were just referring to the Flames ownership group.*

Why would he be out before the deal is finalized and building built? I believe he will get out the second the thing is built though.

Um. Hogwash.
This would be the dumbest possible time to sell. You can say a lot of things about Murray Edwards but he's not an idiot with his assets.

Mr Libin just turned 92. But he’s as sharp as ever. Feel bad though that his chances of seeing the Flames go on a long run are pretty much nil.

Only way the team is for sale right now would be because of impending legal issues with Edward's or other owners where their assets are at stake. Otherwise, who sells a team just as they got their golden arena ticket?

I wouldn't leave Jim Peplinski out of that group. They need a savvy businessman.
