I think whatever the return is, we should all look to the positives of the situations. We are all iginla fans here, and we should be happy. Whatever team gets him will already be a contender and will have an improved chance in that capacity with iginla in their lineup. That's a positive in a season where it looked like iginla might wind up on a last place team.
The other, overwhelming positive is that we are all Flames fans. It's good to move on. Whatever the return for iginla, it will be a good trade because it will allow the franchise to finally begin the process of improving. It will be rough in the short term, but it is necessary to go through the valleys to get to the high summits, and we can finally look forward to new, different and hopefully equally compelling players in the future.
I am hopeful AC will have been holding back his iginla videos in preparation for this moment,but if not, I am sure we'll have them for futures trips down memory lane.
If it happens today or tomorrow, regardless of the return, it's a good move, and the team that gets him will certainly have an expanded fan base willing them to victory come playoff time.
Whatever the return, let's be patient. It will be worth it.
