I haven't been posting on here much this year......but had to come on for this
Incredible trade for the Bruins......can't think of a better fit for this team right now. Iginla's style of play and leadership qualities are a perfect acquisition.
Chiarelli just cemented his status as one of the top 3 GM in the league
what an incredible opportunity we now have to see this guy play. i couldn't be more excited for his arrival in boston and i'd imagine the rest of the team is just as excited... i know i feel privileged to see #12 play out (at least) the spring in the black and gold.
EDIT: Feaster had better start fleshing out his presser...
Does Chia have secrets pics of feaster stashed somewhere. What.
That has Ryan Whitney written all over it.

This deal is NOT done. Wondering if an extension for Iginla is gumming up the works?
Hmmmm.
Does Soderberg still fit here
Marchand-Bergeron-Iginla
Lucic-Krejci-Seguin
Caron-Peverley-Horton
Paille-Campbell-Thornton
Kelly replaces Thornton when he's ready.
Soderberg replaces Caron.
Now add a few dmen and this team will contend.
Drop by more often, you had funny stuff posts/pics during that rollercoaster 2010 season. Hope all is well
.......or, get our own back healthy.Marchand-Bergeron-Iginla

He is, unless he signs and extension.Iggy's not a rental right?
Considering we more or less got Jarome gosh-darned Iginla for peanuts, i want something better than Ryan Whitney on the back end. What else is out there?
No. Feaster was probably trying to accommodate his class act superstar player, who obviously wanted to come here, as opposed to what was better for Calgary. Therefore, he was in a position of weakness from the get go. He did the right thing for Iggy.
When we traded Bourque, Bourque wanted to stay on the east coast. Harry, unbeknownst to Bourque, made a deal w/ Colorado, which ended up being the right one. And, the rest is history.
I don't want Calgary fans coming in here and thinking we're A-holes b/c we're gloating a/b who "won" the trade. If I saw that in 2000 I'd of been sick. Not what this was about. It was a/b giving Iggy a chance to compete for a Cup. These poor people just got punched in the stomach.
Iggy's not a rental right?
