Maybe good news for Senators fans?

      Reynolds had previously stated that he’d only be involved if it was through his group, at least as far as being on the ownership team.

      Would love to see Snoop involved in some capacity. I think he’d be great for marketing to new audiences. I think he’d bring a level of new enthusiasm and modern approaches to grow the fan base, and engage with fans.

      I get that it might not work with original 6 teams, who have a more classic, old school brand. But newer teams have nothing to lose by embracing change and branding themself according to the times.

        I don’t think Snoop had any real interest in growing the game in Ottawa though. He only ever talked about LA… it was strange and turned off most Ottawa folks.

          Yeah. I think Snoop is a great ambassador for the game and it would be great for the sport if the NHL decided to work with him more. Having him as a part of Sparks’ bid was never going to be enough to make them the right choice for the Sens though.
