The Calgary Flames will host the Calgary Flames Foundation Night of Giving Game, presented by TELUS, on Friday December 16, 2022 when the Flames take on the St. Louis Blues at the Scotiabank Saddledome. Throughout the game, promotions and videos will feature Calgary Flames Foundation beneficiaries and raise awareness about Calgary Flames Foundation initiatives and programs while thanking fans and donors.
