It's just reality that a lot of NHL players and wives don't want to live in small Canadian cities like Calgary. No sense pretending it's not the case. As soulchoice says, it just means franchises like the Flames really have to focus on drafting and development rather than trades and free agents signs.

Not only that Cliff, of course they would have stayed in Toronto as it’s a major metro centre in North America and where Kadri is from (GTA). Denver, which wasn’t on his list, being a short flight to LA doesn’t hurt either. Even more so With his wife having a jewellery, albeit small business with ties to both in Toronto and LA.
