But that's really something all NHL players are expected to do (off-ice community service) as part of being ambassadors for the game. So it's really a non-event.

This isn't really true. There may be a desire to have players do this, but the degree to which it happens is largely up to them. There isn't anything included in contracts or anything that mandates this.
