All the stories about "Winning one for Iginla", and all that B.S. will put a lot of unneeded pressure on the team down the stretch.

Positives on the ice won't make up for the distractions off the ice IMO.
It'll be 'win one for Jarome' for literally a day. The local media are going to ask the question once, and they'll maybe ask it again at the start of each new round. At which point, they'll move on.

I don't think anyone's going to be harassing Dougie Hamilton at the Mission Safeway to 'win it for Iggy', but Elboya always surprises me.
