Bruins Profits?

[Terrier]

I recently asked a hockey teammate of mine if he had any idea how much the Bruins profited last season. He said he had heard, however vaguely, that the B's made $21 million. Obviously, this number seems enormous, but let's face it, no one would ever call Jeremy Jacobs a bad businessman. Does anyone here have a better idea of the Bruins' financial numbers?

I can't help you with the Bruins, but another big market club, the L.A. Kings, did open their books to an accountant:

And Jacobs is #303 on the Forbes 400 richest:
