I was a huge Iginla fan.

Yet I became more and more convinced that he became a big problem with the team.

Call me a hater whatever.

Typing from my phone but there were bad signs that he had grown bigger than the team went above the coaches and created divisions in the locker room.

I think the best captain in the NHL stuff is mostly baseless based on what his actual teammates have said

Anyway the way in which he left was just the icing.

There is no way I want him back.

We haven't seen a flames team bust their ass like this and play for each other since early in the Iginla years.

It's what happens when a player gets bigger than the team. Just look at this thread. Fans care about one player more than the franchise. Hard for that not to matter.
