Daniel Kaplan: Stars Sale Down to Three Bidders per Sal Galatioto

by Brandon Bibb on Jul 20, 2010 4:42 PM CDT in Dallas Stars News

If you read Brandon Worley's piece about the process of the Dallas Stars sale, you know that Tom Hicks put one of HSG's biggest creditors, Sal Galatioto of Galatioto Sports Group, in charge of facilitating the sale of the Stars.

And if you've followed the Rangers bankruptcy, you know that they're in the middle of yet another hearing today.

Little did we know that we'd get a piece of Stars news out of today's proceedings. But thanks to laxtonto for monitoring the Twitterfeed of Daniel Kaplan of the Sports Business Journal and finding this nugget.

Galatioto: negotiating with 3 possible buyers for Dallas Stars, proceeds to lenders btwn $140 mln and $150 mln

We all know that Bill Gallacher and Tom Gaglardi have been publicly identified as potential owners. The fact there's a third bidder out there certainly makes for a very interesting development.

I'm hoping for Ghirardelli.

And that they give out free chocolate at home games.

Proud fan of the #1 college hockey team in the nation - Miami University Redhawks - The Brotherhood. RIP Brendan Burke.

I'd become a Sharks fan if that happened

No really, I would. :o)

Ahw, I love Gaga. Besides, if she owned the team we’d have a sellout crowd every night. She could be the anthem singer!

Here's to all us girls who love hockey...and the men who play it.

But the uniforms... :-O

The visors would all be over-sized, sticking out about a foot on each side. The numbers, no longer on the back because there wouldn’t be one, would now be bedazzled and pegged on a stick above the helmet like a candle on a birthday cake …

We REALLY need training camp to start soon.
