I like the idea of moving Wideman for another bad salary in an offensive player on the right side, but Iginla is non-starter. I'd rather sit on Wideman than take on Iginla. People need to watch some Colorado games. He's lost too many steps and is a liability in the defensive zone. Seriously, people have to stop thinking about the great player Iginla was here in Calgary 12 years ago. Take the really one dimensional mediocre Iginla that was here four years ago, then reduce that player by 50%. The guy in Colorado is not a player we want on this team. He's slow and hopeless in one half of the ice.
