The guy was the heart and soul of the Flames over a decade now. The reason we went on that 03/04 run along with Kipper who is also seeing his last days as a Flame. End of an era that truly deserved better than the last 3 years. Its unfortunate 3 years of prime hockey went to waste on a team that really shouldn't have been just a bubble team. I've always liked Boston, I like them even more now and will be cheering Iggy on for a cup! So glad he gets to team up with Ference again which is where this team started to go sour when they dealt guys like Lombo and Ference who were good locker room guys.
Best moment for me is when I got to shake Iggy's hand and get his autograph along with Shantz, Brathwaite and Saprykin for my birthday when I was 9. We won 7-2 against the Canes. So many great memories though. 1000 point game against the Blues is one of my favs because all the plays were vintage Iggy. I'm gonna miss seeing him bust down the right side and fire lasers.
I'll miss the heart ^^ No one can say he didn't have any. Best Flame ever.
