If Balsillie is done with the NHL, then wouldn't you think he'd be offering opinions and comments every now and then? Surely he's been sought by the media for such comments.
I think he's got bigger fish to fry right about now HT. He's also extremely reclusive when it comes to making public comments of any kind regarding the NHL or team acquisitions. Always controlled & scripted. Apparently he will talk candidly but only if its off the record, the tapes & mikes turned off; paper & pens put away; anonymously. Frankly, I just cant imagine any scenario over the next 12mnths that would see the NHL pulling a 180, giving up the Ghost & reversing course in selling the franchise to JB after all thats been wrought, written & said. They have other options, as I believe that waiting in the wings are very likely several other parties who can and likely will be stepping out of the shadows championing Hamilton (and likely elsewhere) should the Coyotes continue to twist in the wind, some Im sure with business cards on Gary Bettmans desk, numbers inserted into his rolodex....
