Calgary is probably in the bottom third in the NHL in desirability for executives and players (and their families).
Sorry, couldn't let this pass. How do you figure that Calgary, which consistently ranks as one of the most livable cities in the world year after year, is less desirable to live and work in than at least 21 other NHL cities? I could probably name only 3-5 cities that have an NHL team that in my opinion would be more desirable to both love and work and be able to comfortable raise a family in.
