5.0 million too high?, I think at 3.5 million for 3 years, you'd get a lot of people on board with keeping him. At 2.0 million probably most would agree that he is a keeper.

Does a hometown discount exist?
The main reason I want Iginla gone is for the culture change. As long as he remains a Flame things won't as far as the teams identity of being inconsistent and hard to coach. I'm at the point where I don't care if he leaves as a free agent and the Flames get zero return for him. He's too interwined into the way this team plays and now that he's no longer a difference maker it's becoming counterproductive for this team to have him as captain and top player.
