I'm sure the Stars (or North Stars), looking back at history, felt they got really fleeced by that deal. The Magic Man didn't get them anywhere. On top of that, Nilson went to the Oilers and won a cup there. I actually consider the Nieuwendyk/Iggy trade even as it worked out for both sides. Stars got their Cup with Nieuwy and Flames got a franchise player and HOF with Iggy.
