Local Preds suitors, along with Del Biaggio, announcing today
PredJoe broke the story yesterday that a letter of intent, possibly binding, will be signed today by the local aspiring Predators ownership group. Two Pauls (McCann and Nicholson) are saying that a news conference will be held at 2:30 p.m. today, and I’ve heard that separately as well. Meanwhile, TSN is reporting that Kansas City NHL suitor Boots Del Biaggio is now a part of the local group led by David Freeman and Chase Cole.
According to TSN, Del Biaggio is in the mix so that the group has a “back-up plan in the event long-term efforts fall through. ” Del Biaggio is currently a minority owner of the San Jose Sharks, so I will be curious to see how this develops further. Obviously he will likely have to sell his stake in San Jose, but how invested will he be in Nashville? Still, this sounds like good news for Nashville and for Preds fans, but I’m curious to hear the details.
