Tonight you need a goal in a tie game. Nash is basically stapled to the bench in the 3rd........a couple shifts, no PP time, no OT shifts.
I think there would be similar questioning here of how Babcock used his forwards in the latter parts of the game. It doesn't seem like it right now, because Iginla is a Flame, and this is a Flames fan site.
But basically benching him after the 2nd is a very strange move, IMO. But I'll wait until I hear his comments before I come to a conclusion.

I think that is the best summation of the source of my confusion. It just doesn't make sense.
Unfortunately we may never find out. If it was the Flames there would be a public inquiry. But its a Team Canada that according to all the analysts features a 4th line with Iginla.
