Penguins for sale!
The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports that Penguins owner Mario Lemieux and his partners have been approached by "a few groups" interested in purchasing the franchise - and plan to begin negotiating with them.
Story
At least one of those interested is a group from Winnipeg. Will we see a return of the Winnipeg Jets? |

Those of us living in or around Winnipeg can only hope that Barry Shenkarow would somehow be involved in the purchase.  |

it would be appropriate if Alaska had a hockey team named the Penguins - aren't there any millionaires up there?

I'm sure there are a few. But the starting price for the team is 100 million. |

heheheheh
THERE you are! 
When I first saw this thread, I thought of you. I figured you'd get yourself all excited at the thread title. OK, I did, too, and thought "well, now, this would be the perfect gift, wouldn't it?"
I can picture you and the kids tobogganing up at Whistler with a little creature at the head of the tobaggan saying "faster, faster!"

Nick, put a bid in on the team! How ironic would that be? |
