Are you implying that these people wouldn't have made these fine contributions if they didn't happen to own an NHL team? I'm not sure that's a fair assumption.

And at what point does it become crass to leverage previous charity work in order to get financial favors? What is the point of charity, if we are all now obligated to give back the money through other ways?
One helluva the leap. If you read any my posts in the new arena build, you'd find I'm not one for significant funds to the new rink. I'm simply stating, their philanthropy should not be disregarded. The Flames owners give a lot back to the community; a grand sum I'd be curious to know, with consideration to tax write-offs.. brand strengthening etc;
