Rapper and entrepreneur Snoop Dogg is making a new push in his bid to be part of the new ownership of the Ottawa Senators.
"We're all together, we are trying to make it better, we just need y'all to hit the lever and give us control. Ottawa Senators, what do y'all want to do? We're here; let’s go!" he says at the end of the video.
NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman said earlier this spring that there were about half a dozen groups that showed interest in the team. Ryan Reynolds’s bid with the Remington Group is not proceeding, but there are other celebrity names involved, like Snoop Dogg and the Weeknd. Various billionaires and business owners are also expected to put in a bid.
"It is a very big moment in time," says Bruce Firestone, a co-founder of the Ottawa Senators, and part of the group that bought the modern NHL franchise to Ottawa."We paid 50 million dollars for it back in the early 90s," he says.
