This is probably the reason I'm happier with the Pens offer. The 1st seemed to be the starting point and as soon as that hit "Conditional", things got tough to bear. I actually don't mind the two prospects coming back...Khokhlachev seemed like a huge gamble. Fair enough that he's got higher upside that either Agostino and Hanowski, but I think there's a good chance that Khokhlachev does bust and become a "good career AHLer"...I'd be willing to bet that it's more likely that one of the two of the above make the NHL to some calibre.
Plus, always gives us hope that it's a few months and done type of deal. Iginla wins Cup, nets the Flames a 1st and 2 prospects, returns to the Flames. I can dream, can't I?
