Rogers Reportedly Bids Big for Maple Leafs, Raptors

Filed under: , ,

Canadian media giant Rogers -- already the owner of baseball's Toronto Blue Jays -- has made a billion-dollar bid to purchase the NHL's Toronto Maple Leafs in a huge transaction with the Ontario Teachers' Pension Plan, owners of Maple Leaf Sports and Entertainment.

The Toronto Star reported the news Wednesday morning, citing unnamed sources. The newspaper reports the sale would also include the NBA's Toronto Raptors and the Toronto FC soccer club, which plays in Major League Soccer.

The Ontario Teachers' Pension Plan owns a 66 percent stake, with a reported asking price of $1.3 billion.
