How is it Possible for a Team to Loose Money?

Positive • Money the generate from:- Food- Drinks - Store goods - Souvenirs- Contests

Negative• Money they lose from:- Paying the:- Players- Coaching Staff- Arena staff (Zamboni driver, cleaners,

cashiers)- Referees- Building (heating, ice maintaining,

gas, equipment, food, etc…)

All professional team can lose money because of all the expenses they use to maintaining the building and pay the staff and players. I think it would be very hard to lose money per year because $4,080,000 multiplied by 82 game (not including playoffs) equals 167,280,000and the total salaries equals $70,093,000 , leaving $264,467,000 for all other expenses.
