That's just got ridiculous written all over it. This story just gets more twisted.

Can this be the same man who earned billions of dollars? I'm beginning to think that he has NEVER intended to bring an NHL team to southern Ontario. I think he's just trying to become a "folk hero" in that area, so he can become an MP, and later, become Prime Minister. If he really wanted to become an NHL owner he wouldn't continue to disregard the rules. If he really wanted to be an NHL team owner, would he want a situation in which any billionaire could muscle his way into his league, thumb his nose at the rulebook and cause chaos? Not a chance.I guess his paying for lawyers in a case he can't win will win him voters he couldn't "buy" with media advertising costing 10 times as much, later, during his politicl career.

Now I'm all for moving the team to KC. This douche nozzle doesn't deserve a team at all. I can understand wanting a team badly enough, but to move them half way through a season if freaking ridiculous. Money says he already has team jerseys and merchandise made up and is keeping in his basement.
