Note - this was funded by the Calgary Flames Foundation.

As a person deeply involved in the charity sector I like to see the "actual donor" get credit. In the case of the Flames Foundation, about 5% of their funding is from direct donation (likely from players) and most of the remainder is from the public via events, 50/50 etc.

So really, this is mostly a gift from the people of Calgary and fans of the Flames.
