In fact, with Shero presumably not knowing that it was only a one-team race, all he really had to do was beat the Boston offer which was being widely reported, as having a conditional pick (whether that is true, that is what was reported).
Whether you believe Iginla moving on is good for the franchise or not, has nothing to do with whether the return is enough (not directed at you in particular, just a general sentiment I'm seeing) unless you believe Iginla being gone is worth any price.
A price which no matter which way you slice it, is not not what the Flames wanted.
