They were both stinky deals because management waited too long (and, you know, Feaster had no idea how to negotiate a trade). No harm at all was done to the franchise as a result of Iginla nixing the Boston deal. If fans can accept this and move on I have to think management would as well.

IMO, it has nothing to do with the return of the trades.
It would be because he said he'd waive for those 4 teams, but then didn't do what he said he'd do when push came to shove, and the result was making the Flames organization look like a total clown show because they trusted him enough not to get his list in writing and signed off on.
