He may be older, but I still think he brings more to the table than any of the above players.

Yes he still has a lot of game left right now, but there's no telling when an aging athlete will lose his game. The risk is not worth it for me.
Because of that, I'm out on Jagr and Iggy. Would rather they go with what they have now and save the cap space for later.
