from the Nashville Post,
NashvillePost.com has learned that a group of local businessmen, including some from the healthcare sector, is putting together an ownership proposal for the Nashville Predators. The bid would be offered only if current owner Craig Leipold’s deal with Canadian businessman Jim Balsillie falls apart.
Those familiar with the deal acknowledge that they have not presented a proposal to Leipold and are prohibited from doing so while Balsillie’s offer is on the table.

Then there’s also HCA and the Frist family. As a Pred’s fan, I’m not holding my breath that Leipold will do what’s best for the community & not his own bank account… but there’s always hope.

While this sounds exciting, it’ll take more than anonymous whispers to pay much attention to this. It seems whenever situations like this arise, at some point a local group tries to put something together. There are certainly enough deep pockets around here to make this a reality.
