So this idea is all but dead I fear. There is no doubt in my mind that the Flames have interest in a veteran RW. Clearly they have spoken to Doan and Jagr agents at some point. I think the cap space after Bennett is the biggest reason, as I've stated previously as to why nothing with Jagr, Doan or Iginla has become even realistic. But clearly they are kicking the tires on a vet and if the money made sense they likely would get serious. Jagr to me has value but iginla makes a wonderful potential story line no matter what the season brings. Yea there could be a circus story involved with that too. But I want it to happen. Just don't think it will at this point but once Bennett signs we'll see. That's if Iginla wants to play at all. Which he said he did but maybe he's close to the same point as Doan now. We'll see.
