I'm sick of everyone wanting to trade Iginla.

The trade off is not worth it. I do not think the market is very hot for him. He's certainly not fetching a proven young player from a cup contender who will make a big immediate impact.

Iginla would get the Flames a good prospect on the cusp of making it to the NHL (Olli Maata type), a veteran 2nd/3rd liner to temporarily fill the Iginla void (Pascal Dupuis), and a late 1st round pick. That's not worth it in my eyes.
