"Iginla shown above with MVP and FHL CUP"
The face of the Snipers franchise, Jarome Iginla was finally traded. He was dealt to the other conference to the Incredibles. He was traded along with another fan favorite and fantasy beast Dan Boyle. One of the rare defenseman that score 20 goals in a season. Iginla has been on the Snipers for 4 seasons and Boyle for 3.5! They were on the the Cup teams and will be missed in the locker room. The Incredibles needed to do this trade as he was in need of a Superstar that can score. His team will now have some crediblity with a bonafide scorer and 90pt guy in Jarome Iginla, to support his other forwards like Perry, Boyes, Morrow, Doan, Ribiero, White.
Snipers owner talks on behalf of the trade. "It is very hard to trade one of your favorite players away who helped you win Cups. He was here since after the lockout in 2005. He was the team captain and leader. But I had to worry about the future. Alot of my players are 28 and over. And the GM's in this league are obsessed with age. I had to acquire them 3 draft picks to replenish my bench and Farm Team. I bsaically traded Iginla for 3 picks and Boyle for Weber. This deal can work out for me if I make the most out of my picks. Since they were on my team over 3 years they will be going in my teams Hall Of Fame one day!"
