This team is finally on the right track, let's not bring back sentimental favorites for the heck of it. Let's continue on the path we're on.

I don't really see Iginla as a guy that needs attention. Sure, fans are going to go wild that he is back, but in no means do I think he'd be a locker problem like some of you think. This ship has most definitely sailed with him being our captain, but the ship has not sailed for him to be a great veteran presence.
I'm failing to see a reason why he would be stopping the path that we are on too. I only want him here if he signs a 1 year sweet heart deal, because we should be a cap team within the next few years.
We both have the same goal; chasing a cup.
