Video: Jarome Iginla doubles season goals total with hat trick

Even in happy moments, trade rumors bring a bit of solemnity to a situation for some. (People like me, specifically.)

Who knows if Jarome Iginla will ever be traded from the Calgary Flames? Obviously, the team shot down those Iginla-to-L.A. rumors with gusto. Then again, it’s hard not to be cynical about such denials, especially in the long sports tradition of votes of confidence transforming into pink slips in a matter of weeks.

So I’d hate to say it, but perhaps this video clip will strike some as bittersweet. Could this be Iginla’s final hat trick as a member of the Flames? There’s no way to know for certain, so instead, try to enjoy it.

You know, now that kind of ruined it. Sorry about that, folks.
