However, it will probably not move quickly, as the source termed \u201ccomplications\u201d on external details are holding up the process.<\/p>\n<p>According to a source, the <a href=\"https:\/\/pittsburghhockeynow.com\/tag\/fenway-sports-group\/\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Fenway Sports Group<\/a> and the Hoffman Family of Companies have indeed agreed on a price, and many around the sale have come to accept FSG\u2019s waning interest in owning the team. <\/p>\n<p>Those complicating details appear to be on the Fenway side and have slowed the process to a crawl. The Penguins\u2019 decision to cede exclusive development rights to the undeveloped land around the arena is not the significant issue in question. <\/p>\n<p>Further, it seems the league, including commissioner Gary Bettman, has advised all parties to maintain silence on the matters until the deal is complete. <\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tTags: <a href=\"https:\/\/pittsburghhockeynow.com\/tag\/david-hoffman\/\" rel=\"tag nofollow noopener\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\" target=\"_blank\">david hoffman<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/pittsburghhockeynow.com\/tag\/fenway-sports-group\/\" rel=\"tag nofollow noopener\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\" target=\"_blank\">fenway sports group<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/pittsburghhockeynow.com\/tag\/hoffman-family-of-companies\/\" rel=\"tag nofollow noopener\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\" target=\"_blank\">hoffman family of companies<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/pittsburghhockeynow.com\/tag\/penguins-sale\/\" rel=\"tag nofollow noopener\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\" target=\"_blank\">Penguins sale<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/pittsburghhockeynow.com\/tag\/pittsburgh-penguins\/\" rel=\"tag nofollow noopener\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\" target=\"_blank\">Pittsburgh Penguins<\/a> <\/p>\n<p class=\"categories\">Categorized: <a href=\"https:\/\/pittsburghhockeynow.com\/category\/penguins-news\/\" rel=\"tag nofollow noopener\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\" target=\"_blank\">Penguins News<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Rumors of the demise of the Pittsburgh Penguins\u2019 sale have been greatly exaggerated.
