This is not true, or at least, not across the board.

I don't think the other teams are doing this: "And in the interest of fair math, the extra money Kitchener earned during the post-season was given away to community programs and charities"
Nor does it say where the 6.4 million goes, if a lot of it goes to the facilities rentals and the franchise owner owns the rink, then I'd still call the team a cash cow. There's a reason that they're not very forward with their financials. And no one is going to operate a WHL franchise at a loss for a number of years for no reason.
