The point of my argument is that if we're looking to improve our team, there has be someone better out then a slow 39 year old winger. There are reasons to bring Iginla here...but I seriously doubt that from a strictly hockey perspective, he's the best answer.
If his name wasn't Iginla, we'd all be groaning at the proposition.

Have a look at this Avs team roster lines:
Gabriel Landeskog Nathan Mackinnon Matthew Nieto
Blake Comeau Matt Duchene Mikko Rantanen
Mikhail Grigorenko John Mitchell Jarome Iginla
Andreas Martinsen Carl Soderberg Joe Colborne
That's a terrible lineup and all the players I highlighted plus Rene Bourque are absolute hot garbage deadweight players. They pretty much are as bad as their record indicates with that lineup.
