I love it, so hilarious and disgraceful at the same time.

Did he mispell his name on purpose to troll?

Or should I know better than to ask that question by now?

Jarmoe, you will be missed.

As a tough a day as this is for Flames' fans, pretty bad day for Bruins fans too. Imagine thinking you are getting #12 and then see him walk across to your rival.

Yeah that would suck too.

what a bunch of d bags. I am not surprised though I remember their tweets when Joel Ward scored against them to knock them out of the playoffs. They just seem like a really unclassy fan base.

Has Jarome ever been booed in the NHL? This is a serious question. This might be a first for Iggy.

Lets be serious if a team agreed to trade a player to the Flames and the deal was leaked as done in the media, only for us to then find out the player refuses to waive his NTC to join the Flames (After saying he would) and then agreeing to waive his NTC to go to the Oilers we would be furious.

I have no issues with Bruins fans booing Iggy. He plays for a rival now and shunned them by not waiving his NTC.

Who cares about Boston. Its their own fault for assuming the deal was done when it wasn't.

And it is their own fault.

From the sounds of things, Iggy chose Pitt because the offers were similar enough. Had the Boston offer been substantially better than Pitt's (say, Koko, Spooner + 1st), there is probably a very good chance that Feaster could have convinced Iggy to to go to Boston.

Default Reactions from Boston GM

This video has enlightened me to the way Jay Feaster does business with his fellow GMs. Chiarelli looks genuinely choked throughout this press conference. He had a right to know that Iginla would have the final say on where he ended up. Jay Feaster

Bruins fans should be the most pissed at their own management team, and their incessant overuse of the media. There sure was a lot of info being leaked to Boston media, etc, and it sure as heck wasn't coming from our side. They should have shut the hell up until ALL the details were taken care of, and the trade was actually official, before getting their fan base all excited over the possible acquisition of #12.

Of course, maybe it was a ploy by Bruins management. Maybe they felt it slipping away, and thought if they leaked it to the media that Iggy was a Bruin, it might influence his final decision providing Iggy hadn't made up his mind yet. Even if that was the case, it was a risky move and did nothing but tarnish Jarome's name a bit, and put their fan base through the highest high, followed by the lowest low.

Koko, Bartkowski & a 1st seems substantially better to me. A 1st, a top center prospect in the pros, drafted last year & an NHL-ready defenceman versus a 1st & 2 marginal LW prospects from the NCAA. Brutal fleecing. At least Iggy is happy...

Was Chiarelli unaware Iggy had a NTC?

The list Iggy provided was a list of teams he'd consider going to... Not a list of teams he'd automatically waive to go to. In the end, he considered Boston and decided he didn't want to go there.

Nothing is done until the player signs the NMC/NTC waiver, and they can change their mind at any time until they sign it. The player has control.

NHL ready defenseman? Most agree that Bartkowski is the worst of the 4 (as far as potential goes).

And calling Koko a top C prospect is a stretch IMO. Yeah, he is the highest rated of the 4, but he's far from being blue-chip.

Replace Bart with Spooner and then it is a clearly better package. But this one is not materially different.
