Money? Can get that elsewhere
Opportunity? Can get that elsewhere

They are 100% a proven disaster of a franchise run by complete incompetents, and if you go there, especially as a young guy, you are risking your career being destroyed before it even begins. Especially as a goalie.
We have front row seats to the disaster in Edmonton. To me and you and every other Flames fan, it is brutally obvious that signing in Edmonton would be a mistake. But I wonder if players in the East get the same coverage of the McTavish show.

In summary, the only reason I can think for signing in Edmonton is naivete.
