Default NHL Owners of Each Team
Stole this from reddit but it's too good not to share. Quick blurb about each owner and how much he is worth.

Why did I think King was our owner and not Edwards?

Pft, poorman's owner. Edwards only worth $1.76 billion.

I'd like to know what the actual owner breakdown in Calgary is. Riddell and a few other bazillionaires also own the team. I think Murray actually has the least amount of money out of all of them

The commentary on Aquilini's photo is priceless.

It's the Montreal Gazette, owned by the same company as the herald so it has the same layout.

Website even looks the same: http://montrealgazette.com

I particularly enjoy the reference regarding Melnyk and having to control salary so that he doesn't drop out of the 3 comma club...

He's going to have to buy a car with doors that open outwards not upwards if that happens

I just can't cheer for the Flames anymore after a mining leak in BC of another of Murray Edwards companies...

I'm betting that Melnyk owning the Sens likely saved his life. Maybe he loosens the purse strings a bit now.

Edwards is the majority owner, but their are a few more too. Anyone know the net worth of the whole group?

Оne thing for sure, Barroway is clearly not even close to the same league as other owners financially, many of whom have professional team as toys. Coyotes are destined to go bankrupt or change ownership/home soon again.

The deal for Barroway to buy majority ownership of the Coyotes fell apart a month ago: http://www.foxsports.com/arizona/sto...y-owner-061515

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