Retirement age depends on a lot of things. Strange that Iginla would retire, did you win the Stanley Cup?
I remember that the NHL series on PC used to give reasons for the player's retirement, such as "Career Fulfilled" (combination of winning the cup and age) or "Reduced production" (age, usually higher than 'Career fulfilled' age).
In NHL '10, it took Scott Neidermayer being rated 76 and a free-agent for a full season before finally retiring. I used to pick him up on the cheap at every trade deadline to bolster the back-end on my AHL roster (so I had a good defenseman and I wasn't giving XP points to players I didn't have signed to a contract).
