The point I was making was that everyone has personal preferences on what type of city they want to live in, and what type of weather they deem to be acceptable. Arguing about who's weather is better or who's city is better is ridiculous. Its like arguing about movies or music.
There are a lot of reasons why Calgary is not an attractive market right now, weather is far from the top of that list. Especially considering the regions most of the players grew up in. Some people don't seem to grasp that (not meaning you).
As people mentioned before. If a player wants to go play in LA because he wants to sit on the beach, gaulk at women, and bounce around the hot night life then go for it. That player is not the guy I want on my team anyways.

I think overall, the possibility to win reigns supreme, the ONLY reason we have a guy like Ribeiro, Mike Smith, Shane Doan staying here is because Don Maloney, and Dave Tippett are here. While the weather is amazing, if the management left - I doubt these guys would be here. I know for 100% fact that Smith and Ribeiro wouldn't have signed.
Calgary weather sucking is personal preference..
I appreciate the response!
