What I'm saying is that if Feaster got a list of approved teams from Iginla then formally submitted that to the NHLPA then it no longer would have mattered if Iginla changed his mind and decided on the Penguins over the Bruins. Feaster could have traded him to any team on that list and would no longer require formal offical from Iginla again once a deal was reached. That is black and white too.

Really? Your contention starts with "if" and it's black and white?
You have the same problem Vinny does. You seem to be suggesting either Iginal did or should have just given them a blank cheque to trade him to four teams.
As I said before, based on the fact we know he had a preference, it's much more logical to assume he'd consider four teams, but ultimately used his NMC clause to have the final say. And that was 100% his prerogative.
