I don't think the play is to flip a few seats in Calgary and hope you are going to have staying power in AB, you need something more long term than that. Although I am a conservative voter, I didn't vote UCP in the 2023 election. I really don't blame the NDP for some of the economic challenges that arose during their time in office.
We will see what happens with Nenshi

Rural votes are pretty much worthless to the NDP. Every plausible flip is in Calgary (and Lethbridge-East).
The margins are so absurd in truly rural ridings that it's pointless to chase them.
