MAJOR | Latest offer for the Ottawa Senators revealed and Ryan Reynolds is believed to be in on it
Since the passing of Eugene Melnyk, everyone was well aware that the Ottawa Senators were up for sale.
The estimated value prior to this season was somewhere close to $700M, but the latest bid suggested that the sale will close for way more. Elliotte Friedman reportedly stated that the bids had started coming in and that one had crossed the $900M barrier:
''Friedman at the intermission says there is at least one bid in the sale of the Ottawa Senators that came in over $900M, there is no confirmation but it is believed the bid was $925M.''
This week Ryan Reynold made a surprising business move that may be related. Deadpool sold one of his companies, Mint Mobile, in a deal estimated to be around $1.3B. Reynolds himself will see a sum close to $100M, which surely helps in buying an NHL franchise.
The NHL had already stated that they'd want Reynolds to be part of a consortium to buy the Ottawa franchise. Reynolds is already involved in sporting venues since he owns part of a soccer team, Wrexham FC. Perhaps an owner like Reynolds is exactly what the Sens need.
