I have zero problem with the Iginla trade. Iginla thought and was seemingly told the Pens offer was as good as the Bruins one. The Flames preferred the Bruins one and mistakenly told the Bruins as much, and since the Bruins were on the list, they assumed it was done and done.
Iginla chose the Pens one. Pretty simple.
The Flames screwed up in again by telling the Bruins, and even worse, before the dust has settled from the goodbye presser, you have the team President throwing "the player" under a row of busses in some desperate attempt to, for some reason, placate the Boston media backlash or remove himself personally from the situation.
Disgraceful. As SCH said, he shouldn't have said anything and kept his mouth shut. Trying to pass blame,almost immediately before Jarome even left town is pathetic,
