You will never get anyone in the NHL to come on the record and say ownership meddled in hockey operations. But we know it happens. And there have been enough rumours, allusions, and suggestions from people around the Flames organization and among hockey insiders for me to believe that where there's smoke, there's fire.
As long as the goal was to keep Iginla in a Flames jersey, and keep him happy (ie bring back buddies like Tanguay and Cammaleri, not give coaches the green light to punish vets), and make the playoffs, then there could be no rebuild.
He said he wasn't hired to rebuild? Well, Flames ownership weren't going to hire anybody to rebuild the team. Not so long as they held to the delusion that an Iginla-led Flames could squeek into the playoffs and then anything could happen.
