The only reason Iggy has not resigned with the flames is because he is thinking about leaving the flames for a chance to win the cup.
Iginla has never been an easy signing and was a holdout twice. He negotiates hard every time, so I wouldn't take the fact that he hasn't signed yet as an indication of anything. His next contract is going to be a tricky one as it should see some drop off in pay and a shorter term.
