You also need to add any other available player that might be able to fill that role, whether it be in the AHL or on the trade market. From a strictly hockey perspective, there have to be better options than an old grey beard. Because if that's the winning ticket, you might as well get Jagr instead.

I personally think Iginla's leadership qualities are somewhat over-rated. He was the captain of this team during a pretty long streak of underachievement. Being a great player doesn't always equate to being a great leader.
