I'd rather spend picks and space on a player that will contribute. I can't find any hockey reason to do this trade, none.
I don't buy a broken car because it's cheap. It doesn't work, I don't need it, it's pointless. Even for two dollars it would still take up space on my drive way.
Bringing in Iginla is not a hockey trade, just admit it. I understand the nostalgia and "hey let's win the cup for him" thing, but he ain't Bourque on a stacked Avs team. He's a guy that has scored 8 goals this year playing butter soft minutes and PP costing 5.5M...
It's ok, I understand you, but running a business or a hockey team based on emotion is probably not the best thing.

totally get your position... said as much in a previous post in fact
there is definitely some nostalgia for those who said yes in the poll...if this were some random player, no one would care, much less start a poll on it.
