IMO Iginla is too comfortable and needs a new challenge. I hope he is realizing that too.

I don't think he wants to uproot his family, so I don't imagine he moves until closer to the deadline. Then he and family determine plan in the summer. I think staying in the west might also be a priority

Obviously this all comes down to where Iggy would want to go - I haven't read all 13 pages of this, so perhaps it has been discussed, but I imagine Iggy's short list would include some of the following:

Chicago
Anaheim
San Jose
Pittsburgh
Boston

St. Louis (assuming they become a playoff lock)
Los Angeles (assuming they become a playoff lock)
New Jersey
Carolina
Philadelphia (assuming they become a playoff lock)

Of those teams Philly is in cap jail, and SJ and Chicago don't have a ton of wiggle room, so some $$ would have to come back.

Agree/disagree with these teams?
