Carolina Hurricanes owner Peter Karmanos is apparently willing to sell the team, depending on the offer, he told ESPN's Pierre LeBrun
The news comes just months after Hurricanes' president Don Waddell denied Karmanos had interest in selling, potentially to a buyer planning to relocate the franchise.
Karmanos added that he's still interested as well to keeping some of it but more and more open to selling all of it as times goes on

Karmanos purchased the Hurricanes - then the Hartford Whalers - in 1994, and relocated the club to Raleigh following the 1996-97 season.
