We have just learned that a new NHL team is about to be put up for sale, and possibly already sold.
It's rare to see this in a professional league, but many NHL teams have been sold—or are about to be—within a very short period.
This is a bad sign for Gary Bettman, and it raises serious questions.
Earlier this morning, we learned that the St. Louis Blues were partially sold, but that's not all.
«Earlier this morning, the St. Louis Blues announced a change in their ownership group: David Steward's partial ownership stake has been sold to Michael W. Riney, keeping the team's all-local ownership structure intact.»

However, it's the following announcement that really grabs attention.
Another NHL team will be sold, but this time a larger portion
See what the reputable insider reports.
« Another NHL club is in the process of selling a larger portion of its franchise, which is nearing completion and is expected to be finalized this summer.

This is even more significant.
For a potential buyer like Pierre Karl Péladeau, who has been seeking opportunities with the National Hockey League for a while, this becomes interesting.
We do not know the identity of this "other NHL club" that is in the process of selling, but clearly, there's a lot of movement in NHL.
Could this eventually open a door for Quebec?
If the sales and property transfers continue at this pace, one might think so.
To be continued.
