Why is every single piece of news for this organization so shitty? This is tiring.

 

[DaveMatthew]

And the good news keeps coming!

 

[Riceroni]

So, does this mean Melnyk has to sell?

 

[BK201]

Im not too worried they said the other bid can accomadate an arena, they have a back up assumed to be that bid and EM already said hes not against renting an arena anymore.

So, does this mean Melnyk has to sell?

Sadly no.

 

[danielpalfredsson]

Very good news. An exciting downtown arena would only serve to inconvenience the good people of Kanata and it's surrounding areas.

 

[Golden_Jet]

So, does this mean Melnyk has to sell?

Nope
Kanata stays.

 

[Engineer]

Wow

 

[Sun God Nika]

This is good news

f*** melnyk

Sens arent gonna live in kanata either a new owner comes in or melnyk relocates I'm fine with either if this NHL team cant even hold onto to talent

 

[DaveMatthew]

So, does this mean Melnyk has to sell?

He can hang onto the team in Kanata, cut costs even more, and own a basement dweller that gets 9k fans a game.

 

[DrakeAndJosh]

Brutal

Sadly no.

It'll be another 3 years until we get to the same spot we are today, unless Devcore is chosen right away.

#Melnyk'sOut

You may be right but i thought 1 threat was that they had a backup they could choose.

 

[Riceroni]

I can't handle all of this success in one week!!!

 

[DrakeAndJosh]

Only chance now is Melnyk realizing that there's absolutely nothing left to win the fans back. Hopefully they just give it to Devcore and Eugene sells them the team.

 

[Sun God Nika]

NHL gonna put pressure on him just watch but its gonna be a long process

 

[Daffy]

Just relocate this shit show already. Melnyk is killing my love for the Senators.

 

[Six Assets]

Time is running out for Melnyk

 

[Gil Gunderson]

You may be right but i thought 1 threat was that they had a backup they could choose.

And I imagine other bidders might threaten the NCC with legal action.

Fun stuff!

 

[inthewings]

Honestly I’d rather see this than see Melnyk get his downtown arena. I want a new start in a new arena under new ownership and management.

 

[branch]

This is pure trash if not for no other reason than dealing with the NCC is a f***ing nightmare. If this was Toronto or Montreal this shit would have been built already.

 

[justafan22]

Bettman won't allow the team to move.

 

[Six Assets]

This is good news

 

[justafan22]

Any significance to the March 7th meeting?
