Ignila is the leader and captain of the calgary flames. It is his job to dispute certain calls. He was yelling and "complaining" when Lecalvier got hit from behind because the reffs called 5 minutes and a game, and right after that he got up and skated to the bench. The reason Ville got 5 minutes is Lecalvier stayed down on the ice. Basically he was acting, and Iginla caught him.
Another example is Ferences Charging penalty with 1 minute left in game 7 last night. As I said before, penalties should not be called when the game is on the line. It wasn't a legitimate scoring chance and shouldn't have been called. I think anyone would be upset if your one goal away, and you get a penalty called that pretty much extinguishes an opportunity at coming back. Hockey is an emotional sport. Iginla is the nicest, classiest and one of if not the most sportsman like player in the league. I was swearing and cursing and jumping up and down through out the game. Thats how much this means to me and all of Canada.
