I RT'd this earlier but I know many KK readers don't use Twitter at all or on a daily basis...

from Christopher Botta of SportsBusiness Daily,

In the five weeks since The Shift reported that the sale of the New York Islanders to Andrew Barroway is in the hands of Charles Wang, the Islanders’ current owner, Wang has not moved to complete a deal. However, specifics of the potential agreement have been confirmed with sources close to the seller, the buyer and the NHL:

• Barroway is seeking to become the majority owner and purchase 80 percent of the team. “He wants decision-making authority and the ability to bring in his own people,” said a source.

• The agreed-upon value of the club is around $400 million.

• Wang’s advisers told Barroway’s group more than a month ago that Wang would like to complete a deal with Barroway this summer.
