Analysis

 

[LadyStanley]

Arizona -> Utah = 75% increase in value.

 

[Bixby Snyder]

Winnipeg at 31, clearly not as profitable a franchise as some here claim it to be.

CSB?

 

[No Fun Shogun]

Always have to take these valuations with a few million grains of sand, but pumping the tires of franchise values this past decade is a big reason why Bettman is untouchable.

 

[S E P H]

I still think most of the top 10 teams are at least half of the value they would truly go for IMHO. If Toronto is sold, I would reckon it would go for 6-7 billion.

 

[StreetHawk]

Every team pretty much increased by 20-40%. Remember this when it comes to arenas needing replacement and the team asking for gov funds.

 

[Bixby Snyder]

CSB?

That's right.

 

[TheLegend]

Arizona -> Utah = 75% increase in value.

When you pay $1.2 billion for them..... yeah.... the value is going to go up.

 

[TheLegend]

Winnipeg at 31, clearly not as profitable a franchise as some here claim it to be.

But their value went from $170 million to over a billion in just 11-12 years.

So if TNSE were to sell they're still getting one hell of an ROI.

Second least profitable =/= Not profitable

 

[Bixby Snyder]

Second least profitable =/= Not profitable

Would you be saying that if it was a sunbelt team at #31? A while back I said that every team was profitable or at least in a position to be profitable and all I got was ROFL emojis, good to see you've come over my side on this issue.

BTW I did not make the claim the Jets weren't profitable just pointed out what was clearly factual. Also Winnipeg along with Ottawa, 2 teams in the country that eats, breaths, sleeps, jerks it to hockey is behind every single sunbelt franchise, do with that what you will.

Yes.
