Again, separate your illogical distrust/dislike/hate of Iginla, Feaster, King, whomever. If Jarome Iginla is told that there is no deal with Pittsburgh, but there is with Boston, do you think he still rejects? An answer of "yes" requires one to make assumptions of Iginla's personality that has no basis in fact.

He wanted Pittsburgh, we all know this. He knew he had the option, we all know this. He took it. Can't blame him for that in the slightest.
I don't dislike/distrust anyone in this situation. I like Iginla, I like Feaster, I thought he did a decent job of clearing out the team, restocking the cupboards and starting the rebuild from a good spot.

So what you're saying is Feaster could have lied to the Iginla camp in order to get him to accept the deal to Boston, and thus it's his fault?

Also what are we blaming people for? Feaster had deals with two teams, Iginla chose his favorable desitination as was his right. I really don't see a grey area here.
