Subban, 26, has been involved with countless charities, but the massive donation is his biggest to date. In fact, it’s one of the biggest donations the hospital has ever received.

Those that have followed Subban’s off-ice exploits will know that he goes out of his way to help children, notably through his charity supporting local hockey with Hyundai’s Hockey Helpers, a program that helps thousands of kids afford hockey equipment around the country
It genuinely seems that the only thing that Subban enjoys more than winning is brightening the day of young fans with amazing surprises like the one he pulled off during Christmas last year.
