ST. LOUIS, MISSOURI — Today, the St. Louis Blues organization have made an announcement that may come as a shock for many... Ripper has officially sold and stepped down as owner/GM.

When asked about his firing and sale of the team, he mentioned "(my) inability to get the team out of the first round, this year, lead to my ultimate demise."

Taking his place is fresh blood, MZambito, who may not be known to many in the Franchise league, but brings plenty of experience and dedication with him.

For those concerned about the future of the team, Zambito praised Rip for leaving the Blues in fantastic shape for the foreseeable future. Furthermore, Rip has been officially named as Senior Advisor to the GM for the 2017-18 season. Helping the new GM with the transition process.

Details on the sale to come...

Congratulations @Mzambito!

RIP Rip, you and I go back 5 years or more and I hope you return at some point from a fresh perspective to FNHL.

Always a pleasure talking deals and sharing a league with you.

That is a solid price for both. Ripper gets a nice payday for taking care of team over the past several years and a new owner gets a team for a solid price. That is the same price I sold the Canadians for. That is the value of a top team here. Good Luck in the Central, I already got that division pegged as toughest division in the league with 4 powerhouses.
