A prepackaged bankruptcy plan filed on Sept. 15 that was five months in the works may pave the way for the sale of the National Hockey League Dallas Stars and its hockey-related assets to Canadian businessman Tom Gagliardi within two or three months.
The sale is subject to approval from U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Peter Walsh of the District of Delaware and the NHL board of governors. Dallas Stars’ lenders already have voted to approve the bankruptcy plan, and the NHL supports it, the team reports in a press release announcing the deal.
