Still a terrible return by a terrible GM

That being said, I am happy that Iggy is a Penguin

Honestly, I'm just glad we got a 1st rounder out of it. I'm hoping we can stockpile some more. Cammy, Glencross, Bouwmeester....whatever, more 1st rounders please.

It's going to be like a surprise Christmas come tomorrow for many Penguin fans. Going to sleep thinking Iginla landed with the Bruins only to find out he's on their team.

I don't understand how they moved from " A top prospect and a secondary prospect" to two nobodies. You couldn't pry Harrington or Maatta? Come on.

Sounds like they had three offers and in the end Jarome choose Pittsburgh. Honestly sounded like that was the only place he would waive for.

Thanks Jarome, good luck in Pittsburgh.

The 1st being guaranteed is nice. It leaves the door open for Iggy to sign back here in the summertime.

But seriously, those are the only prospects you're getting back? Who the hell are these guys? Pittsburgh gave up more for Morrow for Chrissake.

In some ways this trade is even worse than the Bruins one.

When Iggy signs back here in July for 3 years at 5 million per, this is gonna be a great deal.

Not sure if this is a better return, although the non conditional first is a plus.

Would have hoped to get one of their D prospects.

Is it possible that he re-signs in Calgary assuming he wins it this year?

Pretty similar.

Morrow equal to 1st, secondary players/picks garbage for both sides.

OK, so if Iggy gets his cup, he can come back to the Flames. I can imagine the fact that Flames get 2 first round picks and Iggy signed as a Flames.

Bare minimum we need three in the first round or a total of four in the first two.

Love all the backtracking here. Sometimes it's best to be silent.

A guy that profiles to be a 2nd line winger

A guy that could become a 2nd line winger

A 1st round pick in a draft that is very deep with D-men and Centers (21 of the 30 that should go in the 1st round are C or D)

7 million dollars in cap space.

I'm pleased with that.

I'm more pleased that we are moving on finally to a new group of players.

I don't trust Feaster to make any good trades. The guy is just terrible
