It was just announced a few minutes ago that the Predators are being sold at a record price. The sale was not made public knowledge and could definitely cause some implications for a team like the Ottawa Senators who's sale has been very public these last few months.
As reported by Frank Seravalli:
.@FOS reports Bill Haslam is buying a 60% majority stake in Nashville Predators at a valuation of $880 million.https://t.co/1aveDRXmZJ� Frank Seravalli (@frank_seravalli) April 11, 2023
There have been some big changes in Nashville these last few weeks, with the only General Manager they've ever known in David Poile stepping down and long-time coach, Barry Trotz stepping in as General Manager.
Let's hope that this sale does not cause any issues with the new management that is taking over in Nashville.
They have just went through another mediocre season and are most likely missing the playoffs. But we saw in the playoff run they had back in 2017 that this city will is hockey crazy and can be a smashing success if the team is winning.
