I always thought losing money means you are not making as much as you hoped. No business stand around to "lose money". That's like you going to work and paying your boss to work there. Makes no sense.

They make money, they just don't make enough money to pay off their debt.

I am sure the owners are paying themselves a special dividend or ROI and just tacking it onto the losses. They have no problem operating at a loss so long as they pay themselves.

exactly.
Anyway as I said, lower the cap floor a bit to help out the lower teams. Maybe cut back the revenues percentages back a little (1 or 2 points) and carry on.

Really no need to reinvent the wheel.

All is good.

Thanks mostly to the stronger dollar, Canada’s seven franchises have a combined profit of $169-million. Despite a couple of financial powerhouses in the Rangers and Red Wings, the 23 American teams combine to lose $42.5-million.

Make the floor 8 mil below the midpoint and the cap 2 mil over, I like that suggestion.
