What Locke said. If Iginla is on the 3rd like, he's not going to produce the same way he would on the 1st line - his minutes will get cut, he won't get his "No 1 C" et al.

Also - if Iginla is scoring 20 goals, he isn't going to sign for a 3rd/4th line contract, he'll still probably chase $4M+ for as long of a term that someone will give him.
