You, nor I, have any idea what dynamics are at work in his personal life nor should we. If the guy uses his earned right to stay with the club because other things are more important than going elsewhere, (where he isn't guarenteed to win a SC BTW) then I applaud him.
The lack of respect you are giving him in this is brutal....but not surprising.
And talk about spouting off crap. Good grief.

I know first hand because I was in fact that coward. I was once offered a career job of a lifetime but I being young and whipped didn't want to leave my girlfriend and the city to put in the time. I've still done well but I realize what could have been and that me being too comfortable and cowardly got in the way of what would have been greater career success. If Iginla stays in Calgary he's being like I was. A coward and he will regret it like me. It's inevitable when post retirement he looks at his trophy case and laments the one missing trophy.
