Fans will have extra incentive to root for the Ottawa Senators this season as two players are promising to donate to CHEO for each win and inviting fans to join them. Tim Stützle and new captain Thomas Chabot, who wear numbers 18 and 72 respectively, are pledging to donate $1,872 to CHEO’s Kids These Days campaign for every Senators victory this season. The pair are asking fans to join in by making a one-time donation of $18.72, donating $18.72 every time the team wins or making a one-time donation of $1,872. “Our numbers are 18 and 72. This season, we’re putting them together for something bigger than hockey,” the website for the initiative reads. “Join us in supporting kids and families at CHEO. The more we win, the more we give.” CHEO’s Kids These Days is a $220 million fundraising campaign to transform and modernize pediatric care at the children’s hospital.
