Blues are 25th and had the lowest EBITDA in the NHL. Tom Stillman is the best owner in the NHL.

So would more revenue for Blues mean more spending for better players? All these teams spend at the cap level, correct?

Curious that their EBITDA is so low compared to teams that have similar revenues. Not an accountant but wouldn't that mean their operating costs are higher compared to other similar teams and why would that be.

I wonder if it's that they are still paying off the Enterprise center renovations and don't they still have the concessions buyout thing?

If it was paid for by debt, payments on debt isn't an operating expense
