In speaking with one of their representatives at an open house awhile back, he seemed to think that the Edmonton Trail route was more probable than a Centre Street alignment.
Edmonton trail might be interesting if :
1) They hook it into the 8th Ave. Subway via the currently built City Hall connection
2) They jog back over the Centre street - if they do it at 16 ave, they only have to move about 400 m over to the west.

Centre south of 16th is a better urban corridor but Edmonton Tr would just be another bridge across the river with either underground or a bunch of house / small building expropriation. Might be quite a bit cheaper, for the compromise over Centre.
