Frankly, I would have preferred if that had never come out. The highest value item that the Flames walked out of this deal with was the Jarome Iginla exit interview with him genuinely praising the organization and the city up and down. The King interview just made the organizations management look like they were blaming an iconic player for the cluster#### that they were essentially responsible for themselves. They should have just protected the image that they were looking out for Jarome rather than making it look like they gladly would have gone against his preference if not for their own lack of preparation. They look worse on both fronts for King's interview.
