Sounds like a pressure tactic ...

I think Balsillie made a big mistake by openly selling season tickets in Hamilton before the sale of the Predators is final. I thought he was a better businessman than that.

Sort of like Frank D'Angelo unveiling the new Uniforms for his Ottawa Steelbacks/Cheetahs before even talking to the League?

Some things are more publicity moves than anything else.

Bettman is screwing Canada over...he wants a team in Kansas City all along, word is that the guy who is now purchasing the predators and relocating them to KC is paying $48 or 50 million less than what Ballsillie was going to pay. just so Bettman can put a team in KC.

Anyone watched Bon Cop Bad Cap? That one is pretty funny. Bettman bashers will love it!
