Gave all his best years to the team, never tried to leave when times were tough. Ask our rival fans if they would've liked to have Iginla for 16 years. I honestly don't understand why any Flames fan would wish him anything but the best for the last few seasons he's got left.
Yet any time Iginla gets mentioned, theres a vocal minority of posters that think its great to rip him. And I think its garbage.

I agree, Iginla was a class act the entire time in Calgary. I don't understand why people are bashing him now that he has moved on. Is this going to happen with Gio years down the road once he starts to decline?
