The big difference is that Linden was 31 when he returned to Vancouver and Smyth was 35 when he went back to Edmonton. Linden played 6 more seasons in Vancouver and Smyth had 3 more in Edmonton.


If Iginla was considering signing with the Flames, I'm sure he'd call up Linden and Smyth to get their thoughts. Also, Iggy was here when Vernon returned and when Fleury attempted his comeback, so I'm sure he'd think about them too.
