Do you think other teams were in the mix? If so, why would Feaster turn down a a better deal from those teams?

I'm really curious about how people think this wizardry of 'getting better deals' works.
When Iginla submitted his list of 4 teams, Feaster could have done what every other GM does - have Iginla sign a waiver to waive his NMC.
