I should have put the word rumored in front of it, sorry that it appeared that I was stating a fact.

I know that I will be raising a glass and celebrating the day that Iginla is traded. I have been wanting this to happen for at least 3 years now, better late than never. This might be trolling for the fans that cheer for the name on the back, but this is a moment to be celebrated as a Flames fan.

Puckluck can call it trolling if he wants, but there are a lot of Flames fans that have been hoping for this day for a long time.

The only way this should be celebrated now is if the return is a no brainer to make the club better...something so impossible to know at this point and likely for years.

And no...its noy A LOT of Flames fans who have been hoping for this for a long time...in fact i would say the vast majority of Flames fand would have preferred the man stay in Flames silks for his career and win here, as true fans should.

There is nothing "good" about this other than to signal the fact the team is among the worst in the league...something I simply, and most would agree, cannot enjoy whatsoever.
