It's because no team, staff or player wants to spend the first night of a back to back in Edmonton. When its the 2nd game of a B2B, teams show up that morning, play their game, and get the hell out of Edmonton in less than 24 hours, usually 16-18 hours only, which is still enough time to crush anyone's soul.
