Rumor: Senators sold to the Kraft Family?(upd: no)

[Emerica]

Someone on twitter said that nfl bylaws prevent someone who owns an nfl team from owning a team in another league. However, someone else in the family could.

Don’t believe this to be true. Paul Allen owned the Seahawks and Portland Trailblazers if i remember correctly.

Edit: Maybe he was part owner, not sure tbh

The photo from the post is an old photo.

Should of given us this false hope after losing 10 straight.....

Forgot about the arena part. Ok. Well I'm all for it obviously. Not sure why the granddaughter would be at a Sens game for no reason.

Watch them be buying the Rangers lol

She not at the game. The picture is when she as at the sens fest. I remember seeing Pierre talk long time with a women in this area

Sens ice yesterday had the NHL Faceoff ads on it while the speculated photo doesn't. I will note that it does have the updated ads and the jumbotron is reading FanFest in french. So it's likely from September.

Someone on Reddit said Robert Kraft was spotted at the Elgin hotel this week.

I don't believe it... But if we're going to let the rumour train off the rails, let's make it a 40-car derailment over a cliff

 

[Deku]

It's possible that she was here weeks ago and then posted the picture today as things have advanced?

Why was she at fan fest to begin with? I heard almost nobody was there

Also no denials coming from the club.

 

[Emerica]

I mean... This would be incredible but why would Robert Kraft be interested in the Ottawa Senators...?

How often do NHL teams come up for grabs? If he's had his eyes on the NHL for a little while, you take what you can get before someone else swoops in.

 

[Langdon Alger]

If Kraft buys the team, can we have Gronk as our mascot?

 

[Wallet Inspector]

If this is legit,the fans will be over the moon even if we lose 20-0 at the home opener.

 

[OttawaSenators11]

When are our scrub reporters going to investigate ...

I don t understand your point. You say nobody was here in the main office

 

[swiftwin]

I swear to f***ing god... if this is fake I'm going to be so f***ing pissed.

 

[Fandlauer]

 

[Six Assets]

what if it's only for a certain percentage of ownership?

 

[Rand0m]

This may be a good sign that none of them are chiming in?

 

[L'Aveuglette]

I've never believed so little in an internet rumor.

Why would she be at the Ottawa senators fans fest, seriously? I’d highly doubt she is a sens fan

 

[Emerica]

As long as he gets majority stake we won't have to see or hear from Melnyk ever again.

 

[Wallet Inspector]

If it means we can spend to the cap, then that's great.
