The Hamilton Penguins?

Jim Balsillie, chairman and co-CEO of RIM, is the leading candidate to buy the Penguins from Hall of Fame hockey star Mario Lemieux, the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reported Friday.
The paper cited sources with knowledge of the sale.
Reached Friday by the Record in Kitchener, Ont., Balsillie denied the report.
I thought Fingold had already bought the team, I didn't realise that they're still up on the block. This is beyond ridiculous, the city of Pittsburgh needs to work with the current or new owners to get a new arena (like they did for the NFL and MLB) and a long term agreement in place.
Keep the team in Pittsburgh and give the fans a new venue to watch them.
