The sale of the Ottawa Senators remains the most interesting reality TV show in sports as yet another celebrity has tossed their hat in the ring for the NHL franchise.
According to Postmedia’s Bruce Garrioch, star Canadian recording artist Abel Tesfaye — better known as The Weeknd — has partnered with the Harlo Capital Group, led by Toronto billionaires Jeffrey and Michael Kimel, to bid on the Senators.
Tesfaye, born in Toronto, Ont., reportedly plans to be financially involved with the Kimels’ pitch to acquire the franchise previously owned by the late Eugene Melnyk, who passed away in March 2022.
