If Iginla doesn't sign here in the offseason, there would be almost no doubt that he would have walked away at free agency anyhow.
The way I see it, Feaster got something for the organization in a situation where he very easily could have got nothing.

Very well said.
Jarome is a legend and it will be almost impossible to view the situation objectively because of that.
Feaster is sort of like an appointed receiver-manager right now. Nothing's going to be great but he has a lot of creditors to answer to.
