ST. LOUIS (CP) - The NHL's St. Louis Blues have been put up for sale after losing $60 million US over the past two years.
The team said Friday that Wal-Mart heirs Bill and Nancy Laurie, citing significant projected financial losses, had decided to put the club up for sale.

My question is this... ok so they're losing money and putting the team up for sale. but... why would you put the team up for sale and expect a decent selling price (or buyer period) when you're whining all over the news that the team is literally hemorraging cash and that trend is expected to continue in the long run, even with the new NHL deal expected?
seems like a poor selling point to me... but what do i know? I'm just a business and commerce student
