Poll: Would you support still Sens financially (buying tickets) if Karlsson leaves because Melnyk ?

[BondraTime]

Jeff Hunt must have won the lottery.

"A group headed by"...

Holy **** this may be real. I don't care if we win another game this year, if this is true it's the next best thing to winning the cup.

So I broke this right guys...right?

Change your name to Sens Insiderrrrrrr.

Some of the posters on Sens Chirp site yesterday were also saying the team had been sold-but they said it was either Desmarais or Laliberte -or both -with some construction company and Alfie.

Guaranteed sell outs!
Or maybe every game is an outdoor game?

f*** donald trump
















...i mean Melnyk

Please be true! What a Christmas present.

 

[Back in Black]

Sounds like it's a done deal (Rumour)

That would make sense why MELNYK hasn't come out complaining about the team lately

 

[Rhaegar Targaryen]

I'm skeptical to believe it was Jeff Hunt. The team is worth $420M according to Forbes. Does he really have that kind of money and then enough to take on potential financial losses?

EM doesnt have the cash ,to facilitate a huge development project...Its what i said months ago....

Just a group headed by Jeff Hunt.

A tire fire high on wishful thinking would be a better owner than Melnyk. Fingers crossed this is fer real!

It would make a lot of sense for Jeff Hunt to be in there. He knows the market well.

I don't think I can pick either answer to this poll. It would depend. If we lost Karlsson to free agency because Melnyk didn't want to pay him, I'd probably just stop watching NHL hockey at all for a couple seasons. If we lost him to a trade because he didn't want to stay on a team that belongs to Melnyk and Dorion moved him to get what he could, I guess I'd get over it. I'd be disappointed, but I'd get over it.

Did it ever occur to you, that there is no "potential sale"?

Is it possible that the Sens owner is not a liar, and told the truth when he clearly stated that he had no intention to sell the team, when asked during the Lebreton Flats bidder selection process when someone floated the idea that he would sell his team to the other bidders if he lost the right to develop Lebreton Flats?

...?

To the bold, in the immortal words of Alfredssson, "Probably not." Melnyk has proven in the past he's willing to be deceitful when it suits his interest.

 

[coladin]

I would still support the Sens, but the team wouldn't get another dime of my money until Melnyk's gone.

Doesn't work like that.

 

[coladin]

My interest in the sens started lowering since Spezzas been gone.

...and Spezza is lighting it up lol

He's still producing more than Guptil, Paul, Chiasson and a 2nd (traded up to select Gagne).

What are the respective cap hits and points per dollar?

 

[Pancakes Pancakes]

I've heard from a source on the legal side for the city that Melnyk was out on Lebreton and another group (source thinks Laliberte/desmarais) we're coming in to finance it. What that means for the proposal, who knows, and she only mentioned Lebreton, nothing about the Sens.

Im in, if every Ottawa area man woman and child chipped in about $500 each, we could try out a community controlled team a la Green Bay Packers!

Also maybe why Dorion has been so quiet. Something is strange when two guys who love the sound of their own voices have remained silent for so long. New ownership would probably mean the end for Dorion.

Seems way to good to be true especially considering the timing imo
