Go to lake of the woods, 2 hour drive from Winnipeg. Many NHL players own cabins in Manitoba and Northern Ontario. Winnipeg has some sick cabin country within a hour drive, sure it's not the rockies but some damn nice lakes.

Actually, when it comes to swimming and water related sports, I'll take the warm lakes in Manitoba and Northern Ontario over the icy rivers and hydroelectric resevoirs of the Rockies.
Having said that, players can live where ever they want in the offseason, so while those are perks for the year round resident, I don't think they sell a city during hockey season.
