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.

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.
