If the organization cornered itself in its Iginla dealings because they thought the fans would be upset otherwise, I hope we can disabuse them of that notion so that it doesn't cloud their future decision-making. As a fan, once it was clear that Iginla and the Flames would part, I was only concerned about the Flames.
Unrelated and not to start a beef, but I'm surprised by how little I care about Iginla playing elsewhere. I took the Fleury move hard and followed him despite his leaving. Iggy, not so much. Maybe I'm just getting old and callous.
