What Is Bill Haslam’s Net Worth?

The Nashville Predators, once a team mired in bankruptcy and frequently shrouded in dark clouds of relocation rumours, have seen something of a 180-degree turn.

A testament to NHL commissioner Gary Bettman’s insistence on making hockey work in the American South, a big part of the stability that has helped the Predators become one of the league’s model franchises is owner Bill Haslam.

The politician-turned-owner ranks among the richest NHL owners, thanks to various business ventures beyond the rink. His 2022 purchase of the Predators helped spur several successful seasons for both the club and shrewd bettors tracking NHL betting lines.
