There is no reason why Iggy would commit in writing to a number of teams. That would be foolish. And he has no reason why he needs to do that.

A player will always want to see what his options are at the end of the day.

I agree that Iginla held the cards in that situation. Yes Feaster could have asked for a long list of teams in writing that he would agree to waive for and Iginla could have said no.

The Flames were committed to dealing with Iginla with as much respect as possible. And if it meant not extracting the most value possible, so be it.

Now IMO it's still on Feaster for agreeing to two worthless prospects in that trade with Pitt. I suspect he could have done a little better.
