Iginla will not score 50 goals in Calgary again; he's the driving force of the offense, and he's not capable of being that guy any more. In a situation where he's a complimentary player, he could easily hit 40 if not 50 again.
In Calgary, he is a 30 goal man. Which is valuable, but it seems reasonable to assume that, with 7 million extra dollars, we could find those 30 extra goals somewhere, for decent value. Plus the picks/prospects that he'd return? Trade him now, for the good of everyone.
