Forbes: The Toronto Maple Leafs, worth $2.8 billion, have overtaken the New York Rangers to become hockey’s most expensive franchise.

Blows my mind people are bringing up $6 billion, like they would get that.

Kings at 4 surprised me. But it is L.A. after all.

I'd imagine McDavid is essentially the main (sole?) factor for the Oilers being so high at 7.

Sports teams values have a lot to do with development deals these days.

Will this be considered a theoretical championship?

In sports they do. Just looks at leagues with no cap like MLB. Or a soft cap like the NBA.

If I am not mistaken, Blue Jays are 11th in MLB in total salaries and Raptors are 13th. So no, their owners are not willing to spend like crazy, when they are making a killing by staying put.

It’s LA, and they have recent cups, so it’s understandable.

As for the topic at hand, I always assumed the laughs were way more valuable than the other teams in the league, so color me surprised.

Hornets, a bottom 3 NBA team sold at a $3 billion valuation recently. Leafs, because they are part of MLSE, you are not going to be buying just them, you have to buy a portion of MLSE, which is what Tannenbaum sold recently or put on the market not long ago.

Don't worry about the numbers. Always interesting is to see the rankings. did a team move up like STL did several years ago after the Rams left STL. They moved up from mid 20's in the late 201X years to late teens after the Rams relocated back to LA. Rarely do you see a team move up unless it's an arena situation, which is why the Isles are higher ranked now than they were say 5/6 years ago while at Nassau/Barclays.

Did you just see the contract Ohtani signed with the Dodgers? I would call that crazy spending.

According to Sportico the Raptors are the 9th highest in the NBA worth 4.1 billion

Which is why I envy Carolina from afar, lol. Conference finalist, had a war chest around $23M prior to the draft if memory serves. A glut of picks for the next three drafts. Perfectly structured valuation across positions without needlessly exaggerated ceilings. Prospects at every position. And no sign that constant contention couldn't be the norm for the foreseeable future.

Dunno man. The Canes are missing something. Maybe someone like Brind'amour but on the ice for them. Maybe they should've jockeyed harder to get like a Tkachuk-type.

Not a Leafs fan. Just saying your team is just as irrelevant. A cinderella run on the back of a great goaltender who is no longer around.

Not a Leafs fan but definitely not a Habs fan. LOL Anywho if you'd watched those playoffs you would've known that Price was very good but not all world. What set MTL apart that year was our BIG 4D. 4 guys that just pummeled opposing forwards and made them weary of setting foot in our D-zone. The Lightning was just too good and our guys were gassed.

Aren't the Raptors owned by the same owner as the TML and TBJ?

 

[Pablo El Perro]

Are they up for sale? If so, anyone want to chip in?

 

[many76]

MLSE owners are Larry Tanenbaum at 20%, OMERS at 5%, Rogers at 37.5% and Bell at 37.5, Rogers owns 100% of the Blue Jays
