I would still support him. He's my favorite player of all time after all. But also it's not really his place to manage the franchise. That's the job of the GM who I would be holding accountable if Iggy stuck around here while not having a contender caliber team. That's terrible use of asset management in a period that we need to make use of it.
I may be a bit jaded towards Iggy though if he was approached to waive his NTC to a contender, and he declined. But that's well within his rights and we did sign him with the intention to play out his contract with the Flames. So can't really fault him in that case still.
I just hope that we get a chance to see Iggy in a different uniform since Flames can finally move on with a rebuild.
