I think Flyers fans would like Iggy in the orange and black (besides Iggy needs another shot at the Cup). Now, who to send Calgary's way?

Please no. I liked Richards, Gaborik and Nash before they went to the Rangers, now I have to hate them. I don't want to hate Iginla as well.

i love iginla.. he's been my favorite non-flyer for probably 10 years..

but trading for him right now makes no sense.. anyone who has watched the flyers this year will say they are more than 1 aging superstar away from winning a cup this year, and the flyers have 1 legit prospect (laughton) and a 1st round pick, after that, there's not that much value that they'd be willing to part with. using the last two bullets the flyers have for half a season of iginla, just to make a playoff push, is just silly IMO

I agree. So who is Philly trading him to so he gets that opportunity? ;)

...first, no. Because I love him. Second, that really would make very little sense. Now, a reprise of a certain Gold Medal line? That's an idea. Actually, no idea who'd be in that deal.

/Iggy and Kipper for Couturier and Bryzgalov?!?

he better hope for lots of chinook winds through calgary because he's not a big fan of "minoos-toordy-two" temps

Iginla to Crosby? Crosby to Iginla? Yeah, that could work as well.

It's on HockeyBuzz (written by a Flames blogger) - Just generating web hits for Eklund.

Considering Ek's a Philly guy, doesn't surprise me at all. But really, makes zero sense. Doesn't make much sense for most teams right now.

panaccio (CSNPhilly) is saying the flyers HAVE to do this as well.. also on hockeybuzz, but i believe he's got an article on CSN Philly too

.. but he's a joke/idiot

I just don't think it's a move that makes sense for them. Is a winger what they need anyway?

Do you think the team & Iggy are ready & willing to part ways?

I think it would be best for everyone concerned if they parted ways - The knives are starting to come out (mostly from Flames fans) and I don't want things to get any uglier than they currently are.

So there's a big name player who is likely to be moved. And Philly sportswriters are convinced he's going there?

Color me shocked.

Next you'll tell me that Boston sportswriters are convinced he'll take a pay cut to play there.
