The group trying to leverage star power for its bid to own the Ottawa Senators continues to add more known names to its list.
Los Angeles-based producer Neko Sparks is behind one of four groups that had submitted final bids for the team by the May 15 deadline, according to Sportsnet and Postmedia.
The others are reportedly former Pittsburgh Penguins minority owners Jeffrey and Michael Kimel, Montreal Canadiens minority owner Michael Andlauer and Toronto-area billionaire Steve Apostolopoulos.
Unlike the others, Sparks and his team haven’t been shy about publicly sharing celebrity partners this month: first Snoop Dogg, then former world record sprinter Donovan Bailey.
