Disagree on them being confined to the worst part. MacCauley all the way to Clareview, Millwoods, and anything else north of the Yellowhead would have instantly been worse.
Downtown isn't beautiful, but then again the Ice District isn't finished, COVID kept the otherwise great 104th Street muted, and there is an uptick in social disorder in Alberta in general.
The VGK players were constantly buying pizza of the local folks in need at Boyle Street community services. It's not like they all stuck their noses up high at these folks, even though most Edmontonians (and surrounding community members) tend to do when they come downtown.
