You thrust your pelvis, huh!
Lets contrast. Why would somebody sign here;
Guaranteed overpay This isn't enough for some UFAs. See Clarkson.
Little if any expectation Uhhh... There is a LOT expected of this team. That's why we crap on them all the damn time.
Guaranteed long offseasons Yeah that's a big draw. Who wants to play in the playoffs?
None of the cheques bounce Well damn you got me there.
Worst thing you ever experience is a jersey being tossed on the ice. You mean besides being on the worst team of all time?
Decent exposure with all games being televised thus your play is out there for other GM's to consider. I'm pretty sure Pittsburgh and New York have no problems getting their games televised and they probably have as many national broadcasts as we do.
Decent, clean, safe, affordable city. Countless opportunities for family recreation in the playground that is Alberta. It's still a pit with long winters.
Get full house crowds every night and a rabid fanbase prepared to forgive and forget anytime you stitch a couple good games together. Ones that throw jerseys on the ice, overblow every single incident and are mad as all hell.
You're not making a very compelling argument Replacement.
Also not one single thing you mentioned attributes to the most important thing: Winning.
