If you follow hockey closely, chances are you've heard about Ryan Reynolds' desire to become a minority owner of the Ottawa Senators. As the bidding process for the team moves forward, the actor and business guru's chances are looking much better.
Reynolds And Business Partners Ready to Make Bid
It was recently reported by Bruce Garrioch of the Ottawa Sun that Ryan Reynolds and his business partners at the Remington Group are prepared to make a bid north of $1 billion USD for the Ottawa Senators. This is massive news for the Senators and their fans, who may be under new ownership sooner rather than later.
Reynolds met with a reporter from CNBC last week to give an update on the bidding processes, and how it varies from his experience with the football club he owns in the U.K, Wrexham F.C.
"I wasn't an expert in, I'll call it soccer for our American audience, but I've adopted it as football and rightfully so. The thing I think we did do well with Wrexham FC is We don't have a large moat around us of publicists, lawyers and other personnel. We're pretty accessible and accountable to both the community and the club. If you're going to grow the club, you have to be in tandem and be able to grow that community.» - Ryan Reynolds
At least six other bidding groups are interested in becoming the Senators' new owners, so Reynolds and the Remington Group still have some work to do. Seeing how Reynolds was able to turn Wrexham F.C from a bottom feeder into an internationally known club, Senators fans should be excited at the idea of Reynolds owning their team.
