My complaint stems from the idea that the Samueli’s are losing out by owning the Ducks. It just isn’t true.How much more do you want them to spend? Like I said earlier, Anaheim has been a top cap team for the last 3 seasons (including this one). It's not a budget reason why BM isn't spending more money - it's because spending more money puts Anaheim into an absolute cap hell even more so then they are already in. I get it's been an issue in the past, but there have literally been cap spending changes in the last 3 seasons when this team had it's best chances to win the Cup since 2007, can't really ask more than that IMO.
It's not the owner's fault the GM has ended up with nearly 20m in dead cap on long term contracts on players who are either injured constantly, declined a huge amount or both which has limited his own ability to make moves.
I think they are good owners
