I've always thought that the Oilers was owned by one rich man. After the news on the sale of the team that fell through, I found out that about 30 other rich people owns the Oilers. I know the Leafs are majority owned by the Ontario Teachers' Pension, and the Habs and Sens are owned by one person. What other teams out there that are like this?

I know the Bolts and Sharks have a group ownership. It looks like the Preds will soon. I believe Canucks is a partnership. Leafs are a convoluted mess.
Detroit, Ottawa, the Isles, Bruins, Avs, Sabres, Hawks, Rangers, Habs, Stars and Flyers have single/family owners. Not sure on the rest.

More often than not nowadays in professional sports, teams are not owned by one owner but rather an ownership group with one majority owner who's the "face" of that group. The Phoenix Coyotes, which has Wayne Gretzky as part-owner (and coach), is an example.
