To expand slightly.
If Hanifin is a purpose driven individual, and wants to win a cup, he's probably wrestling with whether he sees this happening in Calgary. On the other hand, with the Flames he's likely going to be a top pairing guy for the bulk of the next contract, which may tick the box if he cares about being having the biggest opportunity to play at the top of his game.
And then of course you have the x factor which is unique to pro athletes - which is where do they want to live and have their family live.
To try to boil it down to money-driven motivation is extremely narrow minded.
