The Crosby/Iginla connection? No doubt. He is also instantly their top RW.
True. Luckily for Hawks nation though we have 2 of top 3 best RWs in the entire NHL to console us.

Yeah. It just makes sense though. I mean, Pitts has needed a legit winger to play with Sid for a while now. Now they've finally got one. I bet he resigns in Pittsburgh too. Gives him a couple years at gunning for a cup. Actually glad the Hawks didn't get him to be honest. It would have been an overpayment.
LOL so Iginla is now a Penguin... for literally nothing and a very late 1st round pick by the looks of it.
And we were asked to give up what, exactly?
Dear Penguins,
It didnt work for the late 90s Rangers, it won't work again.
hard to see the guy in another teams jersey. I try to envision him with the Bruins and it looks odd to me. I think there is one other part of iginla that peole miss. he likes familiar faces around him. I bet he not only will waive his ntc to go to a contender but also a team with players he knows. I dont see that with Boston. I do see it with the Pens seeing he and crosby have a close relationship. im not really buying into the boston rumors it feels like fodder from "hockey insiders" who more often than not are talking out their asses to get twitter hits these days.
The difference between this Pens team and the Rangers of the 90's...
Richter > Fleury
That may be the big difference when it really matters.
They didn't want a rental in the same conference.
And Brian Leetch.
And lets be honest the Rangers did sort of buy the Cup in 94..so they didn't completely fail on getting to their goal. Just took a couple Blackhawk players to lift them over the hurdle..cough cough Steve Larmer. Iginla is no Steve Larmer.
According to LeBrun only Pens, Bruins and Kings were on the final list.
