Second tier international events are for younger guys looking to get international experience, maybe audition for Olympics, etc. Iginla has won the Hart and 2 Olympic golds. Let him have standards.

The guy can work hard when it matters and enjoy time off. You can find a better way to bitch about Iginla, that was weak.
Clearly you didn't properly read my post. I stated right away that I have no issue with a man wanting to spend time with his family. I don't fault Iginla at all however I believe that it's also in the best interests of the Flames to move in a different direction to change up the leadership dynamics and culture of the dressing room.
