[JurassicTunga]

Congrats! Flames will be cheering for you!

 

[henchman21]

There is the plan B. Landy-MacK-Iginla is going to be deadly!

 

[AvsRobin]

Thank god. Adding a 3rd year is no problem for me right now.

 

[Avs_19]

Love me some Iginla. Wanted him all year.

 

[Foppa2118]

Thank christ. Almost don't even care the price, just happy we brought in someone useful.

 

[shadow1]

Very excited. Colorado adds a much needed star power forward to the top-6.

Gotta get the righty with Duchene.

O'Reilly-Duchene-Iginla

 

[l Landeskog l]

So happy now.

 

[JWK]

Very happy.

 

[AvsRobin]

Landeskog-O'Reilly-Iginla would be my choice. The strong two way line.

McGinn-Duchene-MacKinnon on the 1st line with incredible speed.

 

[expatriatedtexan]

Happy, happy, happy.

 

[The Pwnerer]

I love this so much, even to the point that I prefer him to Stastny.

1. We get to move Mack to Center.
2. A much needed power forward in the top six
3. No need for a long commitment in Iginla, that would effect the core signings in the future
4. Plays a much more north-south game then Stastny and with much more cerebral goal scoring punch
5. We add veteran leadership who has more playoff experience then Stastny

Good job Sakic, you did well on this one. I LOVE IT!

 

[Noori]

Iginla has unreal chemistry with Tanguay. They were always missing a #1 center in Calgary. If both are healthy they'll score a ton of goals, but neither are great defensivley at this point in their career.

[JoemAvs]

Thank god. This may save this day from being a total disaster.
I am very interested what we had to pay for him.

Ugh. That is very steep for a 37 year old..

 

[Foppa Frossa]

Not a fan of this.

Actually I am , I just had to start the voice of dissent.

 

[henchman21]

Expensive, but I love the deal. Absolutely love it.

And he should be with MacK
