IIRC it was a full NMC and Feaster asked him to waive. Iginla supposedly gave him a list of teams and Feaster started negotiating. He chose Bostons offer and told Iginla, who then wanted to go to Pittsburgh instead. I don't see that as a betrayal or something like that, just a breakdown in communication. Feaster should have got it in writing that Iginla would waive for each of the 4 teams before negotiating ... and informing Chiarelli that Boston won the sweepstakes before it was 100 % done wasn't exactly the brightest move either.
Some people will blame Iginla on this and probably many more will blame Feaster. Me personally, I'm just excited to see Hanowski, Agostino and Klimchuk make progress.
