Ottawa GM says he has an enticing offer for Iginla, here it is..

(The team that gets the best player(s) wins the trade right?)

To Ottawa:

Iginla
Giordano

To Calgary:

Greening
Daugavins
Petersson
Gonchar
1st round pick in 2013

I think this would be extremely fair. You get two solid young players with quite a bit of potential. Greening already has a good ovr, is a well rounded player and has room to improve. Petersson would be a great bottom 6 guy for you, he can play in any situation and also has the potential to keep getting better. You also get Daugavins for the bottom 6 for some extra depth, great PK guy. Giordano has the edge on Gonchar but not by much in OVR.You get the 1st rounder to make up any difference.

I know you don't get any flashy big name, but at this point Iginla is good for a couple more years before a pretty steady decline and than retirement sometime during this league.

I can be flexible and change some things around, but this deal makes sense for me, it would be pointless to swap top 6 forwards cause all of my guys minus Alfie are younger with potential.
