[...] Looks like my dream of the Waterloo Blackberries is sufficiently crushed. Our plucky doctor/hockey tycoon/philanthropist/mobile multibillionnaire Jim Balsillie is looking for a place to put his new hockey team. Hamilton’s Copps Coliseum has the lease ready to go as soon as the NHL gives the green light to move the team, which will only happen once the sale actually goes through, presumably sometime by the end of June. There’s still some debate as to whether the team will move, however. NHL comissioner Gary Bettman said: “I met with Mr. Balsillie last week … and I specifically asked him whether or not he had specific plans or intentions with respect to moving the franchise, and he told me he did not,” Mr. Bettman said on the eve of the Stanley Cup final between the Ottawa Senators and the Anaheim Ducks. “And so I think there’s been entirely too much speculation in terms of what comes next.” [...]

[...] Busy, busy times for the Co-CEO’s of RIM these days. Devices seem to be dispensing left, right, and center, Balsillie wants the Pen’s, and now both he and Mr. Mike Lazaridis have been honoured by Financial Post Business Magazine for being Canada’s Most Outstanding CEO of 2006. Is it fair if there’s two of them? No matter. The article, provided by the National Post, talks too much about the Pearl and too little about the honour. The award, sponsored by Caldwell International Partners, CTV Inc. and the National Post, honours the executives for their contributions in the areas of governance and physics as well as leading the company’s tremendous growth in sales and subscribers over the past few years.

Should have bought them when he had the chance, they got two young superstars on their team now and the franchise is finally on the upswing.
