Iginla barely 30 and in the prime of his career signing for $5m - yeah, that's
a hometown discount allright. The deal Sundin signed near the end of his...
it sure isn't one, no matter what his agent or MLSE keep telling us.

$7mil not $5mil - it's no discount, it's the UFA market value.

Gong again. Sundin could get that and more, and was offered longer.
Actually, if Sundin wanted to stiff 'em, he could have just let the
old contract carry on.

Iginla, and perhaps Heatley, are the only two superstars playing in
Canada. Can you imagine how much he would make if he was with the
Leafs? And not just in salary, but in endorsement deals. Heatley
will never make a lot in endorsements, for the obvious reason.
