More Penguins relocation news...

The AP is reporting that another person has come forward with the hopes of moving the Penguins out of Pittsburgh. Even through he said he would like to buy the team even if it has to stay in Pittsburgh, I find it hard to believe. I also find it hard to believe that the Penguins would be a better sell in Hartford then they would be in Pittsburgh even with a new arena.

A Massachusetts developer wants to buy the Pittsburgh Penguins and either keep the hockey team in the city or move them to Hartford, Conn., where he is trying to get state officials to build a new arena, a newspaper reported Friday.

Lawrence Gottesdiener told the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review that he owns a great deal of property in Hartford, so moving the team there makes sense for him.


I know these are going to multiply until this whole problem settles out but it is worth a word or two.
