Blech, I don't like cats.

Back to when there was a semi-serious Iggy conversation, I think the room/chemistry problems are likely minimal, but it is fair to speculate on that issue, as it is a pretty rare case of former captain and first ballot hall of famer to return to a team looking to be a contender.

My speculation is that the current leadership would welcome him with open arms, if they think he can actually improve the team. I am not so certain he will, given the speed of the game and GG's system. He needs to play this system, not Daryl's.

I just don't see the fit. Not a first liner anymore, and it seems ridiculous that we would bring him back for "toughness". Likely more of a mentor/powerplay specialist like Versteeg. We already have Versteeg.

O.K. there has been a lot of talk on whether or not MacTavish has actually done a good job for us, most fans on this board are very basic in their analysis and I feel would change their opinion entirely if the team was successful.
