RSL Arenas - Finances

[Buffaloed]

These were pulled from references in http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russian_Hockey_Super_League. Ticket prices are said to range from 50-300 rubles which is like $2-11 (USD). It's a great deal for the fans, but how do these teams make any money, sponsorships?

As I understand it most of those teams are owned by large Russian corporations. The teams are subsidized by the corporations.
