I should add, the Flames have gone out and signed/targetted players Iginla personally hand picked - he wanted Jeff Friesen, he wanted Tony Amonte, he asked for Marc Savard (we almost got him back; our "No 1 C") ... he wanted an enforcer, we brought in Chris McGratton and PL3 at his request. So stop propagating that crap that the organization let Iginla down, the organization did everything they could and spend to the cap limit (and bury contracts), at one point the Calgary Flames might as well be "Iginla and friends" ...
Sucks we didn't go anywhere, but the organization tried and shelled out a lot of money to try and compete the last few years.
