I just think Edmonton is still in the running as there would be a better chance of keeping everyone safe from the virus than any American city.

I don't think the players care about the desirability of a city from before Covid. I think many of them just want to play hockey and be safe doing so.

Isn't there a 5 star Marriott hotel attached to the Edmonton arena? That should be good enough for the players, I'm sure.
