It didn't take long for the Boston Bruins to pounce following the report that Calgary Flames forward Jarome Iginla had submitted a list of four teams he'd be willing to move to by the league's trade deadline next Wednesday. Of the four, the Pittsburgh Penguins' early moves complicated matters, while Chicago's roster didn't seem to bring about a real fit for the Calgary captain in their top-six. Basically, it was done to the B's and the Los Angeles Kings.

And you can put this one on the board for the Black-and-Gold.

Jarome Iginla, after almost three years of rumors that often led him to Boston, is a Bruin.

According to reports, the 35-year-old winger will come to Boston in exchange for defensemen Matt Bartkowski, highly touted prospect Alexander Khokhlachev, and a conditional first round draft choice dependent on whether or not Iginla re-signs in Boston.

Iginla was a healthy scratch tonight, and has nine goals and 22 points in 31 games this year.

More on this as the night goes on...
