It’s a testament to the players, to management, and in particular the ownership group, which is being led by Tom Cigarran. The team is doing all the things that we think are important for a team to be putting down roots in a community and to be an important part of a community. We’re delighted, that at this point in time, particularly with the team so competitive, that we’re bringing our All-Star festivities and our celebration of the game to Nashville for the All-Star Game." – NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman
