I sincerely hope this is the case and it's accurate. I'm not sure how quickly the process would be but I really truly hope this is real.

Hopefully this process has been going on for a while. I would be very surprised if this is not real.

Ratner and prokorov . There is also an out clause in the coliseum lease that ratner can break if he gets the rights to the coliseum site to bring them back to the island.

This doesn't make sense to me. Do you mean an out clause in the Barklays lease?

I hope this is not the case. Isles need to forget any ideas of going back to the Island.

I really hope these rumors of Charles selling aren't true. I've been enjoying my free ride masquerading as an NHL goalie. #Isles #WangMustGo

Love this guy!!

Good idea not to get too excited Vukota. It's tough though because talk of a sale seems to keep coming up more and more.

I'd be as happy as anyone if it were true but I seriously doubt it.

I think we all knew he was going to sell... except one poster!!!

I would be surprised if it was anybody but Prokhorov.

I can see him buying the franchise and then naming a big name President of Hockey Operations!!!

That may happen in the offseason...

If Wang owes $75 million in loans... he will need the money to pay it back.

Even Negative Nelly has to be somewhat excited by this!!!!

Maybe Not!!!

I'm away from my computer right now so I'll keep it simple. We get this rumor about once every two years. I wouldn't doubt that Wang may look to sell a stake in the team at some point down the line which could explain contacting a consultant firm but I think it's a leap of faith to assume he contacted this group specifically about the isles. Charles owns undeveloped land, hotels, businesses, real estate firms etc. This contact could be about any of those things.

If Charles Wang sells this team, we're all getting together for a five-day, five-night celebration. Just not in a dry town.

Well it's not a good thing now but hopefully soon it will be a great thing especially if Wang sells. Kasper should have told Wang to "go get your shine box"

Ratner getting the go ahead to redevelop the land a week after the 25 yr lease has been signed, there is somethingn up there and it wouldn't surprise me if the Barclays cente is a temporary home while they rebuild the Coliseum.... Who knows, all speculation of course.

Maybe he will get an offer he can't refuse? It fits in with the shine box talk today.
