Around SBN: Miikka Kiprusoff Wins 300th Game, Buffalo Crushes Boston

The Flyers continue to be rank among the NHL's most valuable teams, according to Forbes. The organization is estimated to be worth approximately $273 million, good for fifth highest in the NHL. It's interesting to note that the Original Six and the Flyers make up the top seven in the list.

Taking a look a little closer at the Flyers' individual financial situation, we see that the organization's growth has been modest over the past number of years, while revenue fluctuates quite a bit. The organization continues to be pretty inefficient, though, when it comes to generating operating income (it's not clear whether these are Comcast-Spectacor figures or Flyers-specific figures; is it just a coincidence that in 2001, when the Sixers were in the NBA Finals, Forbes reports $13 million in operating income compared to $1-4 million in first/second-round Flyers eliminations and actual losses during Flyers ECF trips?).

Oh, and Pittsburgh's at #11.

Greg Wyshynski couldn’t bring himself to include the Flyers when reporting this in his blog.
He included the top 4 teams and the bottom 5
He is a jersey fan but at least hes been a fan for more than 3 years
