When the owner is the de facto GM...there is a little more incentive to keep expenses lower to increase profit.
Once again this does not matter. They can't spend more than the cap, so profits can't be applied back into the team beyond the cap. They spent within 5 million of the cap last year and rolled over the rest. They couldn't have spent that much more. You could argue it could be spent on a practice bubble or other facility upgrades which could help the FA process, but that is not the premise of this thread.
