Especially since its doubtful that USA Hockey pays the mens teams any wages seeing as they're all NHL'ers.
There are two issues here. The IIHF makes money from tournaments and sponsors and funnels it down to the federations that qualified. Is this true? Also IIHF will have another fund that send money to lower members like a Taiwan to develop hockey. Is this true?

If true, then is the USA Hockey dividing that properly to sustain it's womens program?

Think of it like a non-profit organization.
