Specifically, don’t expect the Research in Motion czar to divulge even the tiniest detail of his intentions towards the struggling Nashville Predators, at least not until his agreement to buy the team closes June 30.
And when Balsillie is grilled by league commissioner Gary Bettman and various owners, insiders guess his approach will be different than when he was trying to buy the Pittsburgh Penguins.
“He’ll have to lie through his teeth,” said one NHL source.
That’s because most believe the NHL won’t take kindly to Balsillie boldly outlining plans to get the Preds out of Music City as soon as possible, even though many NHL governors undoubtedly won’t miss a team that has been drinking deeply from the league’s revenue-sharing trough the past two seasons.
