With some of the glorified gossip revolving around Markstrom and the Oilers, I wonder if him spending 6 weeks in Edmonton (despite being in bubble life) and seeing what the arena has to offer the Oilers players really made him think this is a place he could live and raise his family.

This is the level of delusion down at the oilers boards. I live in Edmonton region and can confidently say that anyone who was in the bubble got the worst view of Edmonton imaginable- the area surrounding rogers is a mess of poorly planned construction, bountiful amounts of the city's most needy citizens, civil services, the central courthouse and old remand, and Edmonton architectural marvels like the bibliotank. No chance at all that any player came away with a positive impression of life in the city.
