I'm happy for the individual, but not happy for the collective.
Welcome to the Dark Years, redux. It was only a few years ago we were the Division champions and regularly making the playoffs, even if we weren't winning them.

But why would Khoklachev be scratched if Iginla made it clear he would only go to Pittsburgh? My theory is that after Boston lost to MTL, Boston chose to cancel the deal,which would explain feaster leaving right after Boston lost. Perhaps with the team struggling a bit, they want to focus on something else, maybe they would only trade for Iginla if they thought they could catch Pittsburgh for 1st in the conf.,etc.
