From my read it sounds like a chunk of that 81M is image rights to the Oilers. I wonder how the rate for that is determined? Does Katz just get to make up an amount he thinks sounds good and bill the 50/50 for it?

Guess they can justify any sum for themselves by just thinking that if it wasn't attached to the Oilers brand/games, it wouldn't even bring in a tiny fraction of the amount that ends up coming. Take the cash, everyone pat themselves on the back for making it happen through pure OEG awesomeness. Everyone wins!

Definitely good that this is being dug into and put in the spotlight. Hopefully ends up with more of the money going to the actual charities, and it turns from being just silently taking the cash into a PR issue.
