I think it's been a lot easier than most people thought it would because most of us, whether admitting it or not, want this team to finish as low in the standings as possible in this shortened season to give us the best possible player to build around going forward and NOBODY wanted to have to see Iginla go through that at this stage in his career and are excited for him as a player to have a chance to succeed.
Lot easier to swallow the pain of your franchise player being moved when his best years are behind him and it's for all the right reasons.
