According to Friedman, he spoke to Feaster on Saturday:

5. Calgary: Jay Feaster will not discuss individuals. I asked him Saturday if negotiations have even begun with Jarome Iginla (they haven't). He said, "I'm not going to talk about Jarome specifically. Every time his name comes up publicly, there's an outcry." Even topics like extending Jay Bouwmeester (can do it in July) or Joey MacDonald, he's keeping it quiet.

6. What Feaster did say is this: it is "an organizational decision" that they are not going to tear down and rebuild. They're just not going to do it, no matter how much we all think they should. But, he added, "We do recognize we have certain contractual issues we have to deal with." He also indicated that any moves they make will try to address their smallish stature at centre, a problem that extends to some of their prospects, too.

7. The one thing everyone should remember about Iginla is that he is tight with owner Murray Edwards. There may not be any talks yet, but if he wants to stay -- and they want him to stay -- it will get worked out. Could he get traded, then come back in the summer?
