The reality is Calgary is on the bottom of the pack in the NHL unfortunately for players to want to play. As mentioned if any player does have a no trade list, you can bet with no uncertainty Edmonton, Winnipeg, Calgary and Ottawa will be on it. As well as Buffalo.
I don’t fault any player for not wanting to play in Calgary. It is what it is. It’s not a personal diss by any stretch. It’s just a preference held by a player. I know if I was a NHL player I wouldn’t want to play in any city other than Toronto/Montreal or Vancouver either.
That is why the key for places like Calgary and Edmonton etc, drafting is so important.
