NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) - Craig Leipold patiently worked to build an NHL franchise and turned the Nashville Predators into one of the league's best teams. If they win a Stanley Cup, it won't be with him.
Leipold confirmed Thursday he has signed a letter of intent to sell the franchise to Canadian billionaire Jim Balsillie for $220 million after losing $70 million in 10 years of ownership.
"I'm tired of losing money," Leipold said. "I found someone willing to step up and invest in this team and make it happen."
