Raw Charge, a Tampa Bay Lightning community

I created this petition on change.org last week because I'd decided that I was done playing nice with the Maloofs, and that my desire for new owners now trumped my fear of pissing off the current ones. I hesitated, however, and decided not to share it. After seeing that Sacramento business leaders have decided to take a stand against the Maloofs and send their own letter to the Board of Governors urging new ownership, I'm emboldened again to give fans and other concerned individuals a chance to send a unified message that it's past time for the Maloofs to do the right thing and sell the team. I understand the concerns of those that are uncomfortable with this kind of thing, and I'm not going to try to convert anyone that thinks this is a bad idea. But if you're ready to put your name down as someone who no longer trusts the Maloofs at the wheel of something that is so important to you, please sign this petition and share it widely.
