I think trading Iginla or choosing not to resign him would be "Addition by Subtraction"
Iginla eats up valuable forward minutes. He has played the most forward minutes of out all forwards in every game except for tonight. Hudler played a few more seconds than him tonight. The first time all year.
How are we ever going to develop Backlund & Baertschi and Gudreau if they get relegated to 2nd or 3rd line just so Iginla can continue to play on the 1st line?
