So what's the selling point? That's a bad combo of factors. Calgary simply ranks amongst the lowest teams in terms of where guys want to go. And as much as we hate it - Edmonton at least has the McDavid selling point
If you "out-Winnipeg" Winnipeg....you're going to do just fine and succeed. Heck, if you just come close, you're a more desired destination. Treliving hasn't been able to come close to that.
