I think Iginla still has top value come the deadline. Yes he can still be productive but at his age...going forward his role should become less...IE a second line forward and PP specialist.
With that said I would welcome a deal where the Flames can nab a 1st round pick and a quality D prospect. I still think a team like the penguins are a suitor for Iginla. All he has to do is basically be a Brett Hull type player - get open and unleash his shot. Crosby/Malkin will do all the work and create the chances for Iginla. The penguins have enough D depth to make a deal happen.
