Second - what if Iginla wasn't willing to sign that list. What if he said "here's a list of teams I think I'm OK with but I want final say".

At the very least you don't punctuate an embarrassing season from your front office by having egg all over your face finalizing a trade and then having to back off of it after the other team thinks it's a done deal and leaks it. But that's mostly immaterial. In the end, it would force Iginla to define his future first, lower the amount of work the GM has to do to trade him, and makes sure everyone's being honest with each other. If that matters.
