just for discussion purposes. Remington and RR wanted time to negotiate with City and NCC.

The tweet says GPS and the team's board of director's said no. Perhaps Remington said "we are willing to off a significant amount, but we need to understand what the NCC and City positions are". Team figures "no, we just want everyone to bid super high and then the winner can figure it out later"

Perhaps team is worried about the value they get if the NCC and City push down that value with their positions.

no analysis; could be done like dinner or Remington group on the power play.

EDIT: I think these are the only guys to say the B word, so the risk for the team is now the other bidders don't feel the pressure to go higher.

I just don't want a consortium of 12+ guys with 200k stakes.

I also reaaaaalllly don't want Roustan.
The Neko Sparks just seems like a bunch of millionaires trying to get together to play with the billionaires. And until it comes out who is backing the bid/where the funds are really coming from i’ll be sceptical.

I like the Andlauer group and also the Kimel brothers who i think have Desmarais part of their bid and have also been part owners in the past.

Do you have the links? I don’t remember seeing this from anyone that is legit. Seems like all just piggy backed of the Wallace rumor.
I think all further reports were based off Wallace. I don't believe anyone's name came out of Neko's mouth - other than a very early reference to UK money.

It’s actually the only group with NHL names you would recognize

You deadpool fanboys are so fickle. I don’t want anybody to be alarmed, by Reynolds’s doesn’t actually have superpowers
Lmao yeah with legacy tier NHLers such as Matthias Norstrom and Trevor Daley. And they also have the guy who owns some Anytime Fitness locations in Ottawa! Sick group

Comprised of motivational Instagram speakers who act like Great Value Gary Vaynerchuks

I don’t even like Deadpool and I’ve never seen the movies

Peak Sens and Ottawa thing to happen.

Unless it is indeed one of those negotiating ploys it really seems like a blue ball situation has just happened in the ownership battle.

Ok with the info coming out, Remington definately shares some of the blame. Reynolds might have chosen a bad dancing partner.

Now, will the remaining bidders reach out to him as a last ditch effort to make their bids stand out more, or is it too late?

I think he picked the dancing partner that would put up the majority of the money while letting him be the face of the bid.

Don't think any other bids will do that.

Interesting. Does he want to be the star of the team and tak that away from the players?

We need an owner who’ll spend the $$$ and be out of sight.

Sources say the Remington Group asked for a window with the bank to "negotiate a deal with the NCC and the city" on the land part of the agreement.

That likely extends the deadline in a few days. Any guesses on what the wanted to achieve there?

I don't think that's the case (take that away from the players). was quite the opposite with Wrexham, correct. I mean, somehow I now know about a football players in Wales named Paul Mullin.

I think his marketing vision would go a lonnnggg way for a city like Ottawa and players. A city like ottawa to attract talent will need more than just deep pockets

Could be that no further delays are important to this process and GSP felt the request would cause delays to have this remain an equal opportunity type of bid. Reynold's group wants to get to the table with NCC and the city again ahead of their final submission , why wouldn't other groups want that same opportunity. Sucks to lose the favorite in the race . Makes you wonder if there are other more fragile bids at this time.

LOL. All the posters in here who had an extremely weird man crush on Reynolds must be heart broken. You really thought “VancityReynolds” really cared about Ottawa?

Get a grip guys. Just hope for an extremely rich owner. The Weeknd & RR would be a bonus but some of the discourse here has been ridiculous.
Lmao. The minute Snoop stepped into the scene Reynolds become irrelevant. Even Ian Mendes jumped off that ship. As long as the news guys spends to the cap I could care less what else Snoop wants to do.
