Ah see that's something I see as a plus to living in the boonies. Between the ring road and mega highways it's much easier to get to Chestermere, Don Hartman, Fish Creek, Okotoks, Springbank and COP from the outskirts than it is from Downtown. Apart from the 1 week a year I get to play at West Hillhurst I'm always driving ~30 minutes both ways for hockey.
