Name me one professional sports team owner who isn't in it for the same reasons. :confused:

Actually, there are a lot of billionaires for whom it seems more of a vanity project. Jerry Jones, Mark Cuban and the Molsons may end up making money, but is not clear to me what was their primary motivation in buying their teams.

Exactly! George Steinbrenner was the prime example of all time.

Think they'd still want to hang on to their franchises if they were losing money?

Last i looked, the habs are at the cap limit

Exactly. Plus, they still have to re-sign Carey Price & P.K.

What could save them is if Markov has to retire. But i doubt this will happen.

My guess is that they might have to bite the bullet & buy out some contracts or send a player to the minors.

Great point and absolutely true. They did not become billionaires because they like to lose money. If this was to start to happen and they could not make a quick fix, they would sell in a heartbeat for the right offer. making money is an addiction to guys like that and as soon as they "Stop" making it, they move on to something else to protect their fortunes.

I totally agree. Look, i'm sure there are many of those billionaire owners that love sports as much as we do & are passionate about it. Who wouldn't want an owner like Eugene Melnyk or Mark Cuban? However, it's still a business & if they'd lose money, their fortunes would suffer & there's no way in hell they'd want to hang on to their investment.

Sending Gomez to the minors would solve all their cap problems going forward, but i hope they do not do that lol. If Molson had any balls tho, thats EXACTLY what should happen, IF they can not trade him, which is very unlikely but still possible i guess :noidea:


PS. Is GHG still around? :noidea:

One exception: Mike Illitch, the best and classiest owner in sports.

I like Mike Illitch. I can't say a bad word about him. I hate Little Cesars's Pizza. It's crap! Mr. Illitch is one of the most passionate & generous owners in professional sports. But Mr. Illitch is also in it for the money & he'd sell the team as soon as it would start losing money.

Wikipedia rocks! Little Caesar's is correct, thanks JC.

Thanks guys. The fact my maternal language is farsi causes me to make spelling mistakes once in a while with tough words. I'm fortunate that i can count on the fine merb folks to help me out with my spelling.

Wasnt that Dominoes Pizza?

Mister 69, the correct spelling is Domino's, not Dominoes. Mr. Tom Monaghan owns Domino's Pizza. He used to own the Detroit Tigers until he sold them to that prick Mike Illitch.

I haven't heard or read anything about Subban going out and partying. For all we know, he's got a hot babe and is fucking his brains out all the time at home. And besides, I used to party late into the night at Chez Paree with Corson and Carboneau and others back in the day and it never hurt their performance on the ice.

I totally agree. SK & I partyied it up with a Bruins legend a few years ago & he didn't even miss his game on the following day & actually scored a couple of goals.

Okay, it was an old timers game. So what? ;)
