Iggy turns 37 this summer.. so realistically I think he has maybe 5? seasons left.

He has always been a fitness nut so that should carry him into his early 40's..

I think he gives Boston another chance, then maybe next season if they exit early again he starts to semi panic and look around again. LA is a very likely destination.

The Bruin fan reaction doesn't surprise me at all, granted it is a fairly small sample size (maybe 20ish fans total), but the general consensus I got from their group before, during and after the game I saw in March they were very under appreciated of Iginla's talents. They felt his production was just a result of playing with guys like Lucic and Krejci. Many a "frick put me out there with those two and I will score 30 goals as well!" comments were made by numerous people.

Iggy doesn't hear that though, he just wants his Cup and a few angry fanbois on the interwebs won't spoil that.
