I was going to say something along these lines. As much fun as it is to poke fun at Edmonton and say that no one would ever want to go to that city, I think players are more turned away from the Oiler's management (Lowe) than from the city.
If the new Jets team is a well run organization that treats its players well then they will be able to sign free agents who are willing to be a part of a well run team even if it is located in a somewhat undesirable location.
