Straight talk from lead Preds owner
Posted on October 26, 2009 at 9:41 am
David Freeman says that, despite a strong run in booking non-hockey events at the Sommet Center, true success remains a way off for the Predators’ ownership group.
“We’re not anywhere close to victory,” he said. “I would say we’ve cleared the critical stage, but we’ll have a long way to go to feel safe and secure. Until we can find 17,000 people, 41 nights a year that care enough to support us with their pocketbook and their presence, then I don’t think we have been successful with what we set out to do.”

Potential Preds investor surfaces
Posted on February 5, 2009 at 8:50 amA Calgary investment banker who has in the past partnered with Preds frontman David Freeman is interested in acquiring what he says will be a “nominal” stake in Nashville’s hockey team.
“We’re still returning each other’s phone calls but nothing’s finalized,” said Wilson, who is keenly interested in buying into the Predators, given his business connections in the southern U.S. city and affinity for hockey fans there. “We’ll see what happens in a week.”
