Part 6: True North Sports & Entertainment's efforts to acquire an NHL team (Winnipeg)

[Buck Aki Berg]

I think it's moreso because they haven't really supported the team since its inception and haven't really done anything substantial to try to save their team since it has been threatened with relocation.

Attendance figures from the AWA days, already posted in this thread, illustrate otherwise.

WFP: Bettman ready to make ultimatum in 5-10 days. Hulsizer has pulled all concessions off the table.

TNSE will want some financial incentives (like a seven-figure "it fell apart" compensation) to agree to be stalking horse a second time to force Hulsizer/Glendale's hand.

I hope so, way too many BIG NEWS pieces being the same old thing like Sportsnet saying today, Winnipeg is on the NHL's radar well duhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. What have they been in a cave for the past two years?

 

[Le Golie]

Hustler sounded pumped on the radio. Just ironing out a few details and confirming a couple things. Sounds like fairly big news.

A deadline perhaps?

EST -1 hr
PST +2 hr's

 

[Winnipeg Jets]

I wonder what it could be. It can't be anything too huge as I would think other media outlets would have picked up on it as well. Either way it sounds like a step forward to Winnipeg acquiring an NHL franchise.

 

[King Woodballs]

4 more minutes until we find out the coyotes are moving to Quebec

 

[Jet]

This better be more than hype or I will be PISSED

 

[Gump Hasek]

Volpatti interview?

Get to the news.

 

[King Woodballs]

Truth North expected to trigger campaign for NHL season tickets

[Gump Hasek]

Season ticket campaign!

 

[King Woodballs]

True North, in order to satisfy the board of governors, will likely ask Winnipeggers to commit to purchasing season tickets for a minimum of three seasons.

Good luck with this one
