After picking up a copy of the Scene this afternoon I came across another article waving at professional hockey as it headed out of town… or at least that was the impression I got. What struck me the most was:

The bottom line here is that a group of well-heeled private individuals are spending $193 million on an asset that was first purchased a decade ago for $55 million, was valued by Forbes last year at $134 million, and has little to no chance of ever finding long-term operating success as a local franchise.

I can only hope that will not come to pass, if so it would be disappointing to say the least.
