Here are some:
NHL Hall of Famers:
Grant Fuhr
Doug Gilmour
Phil Housley
Brett Hull
Al MacInnis
Sergei Makarov
Lanny McDonald
Joe Mullen
Joe Nieuwendyk
Retired Flames Numbers
Lanny McDonald
Jarome Iginla
Mike Vernon
Others who have accomplished far more:
Theo Fleury
Mikka Kiprusoff
Gary Roberts
Martin St. Louis
Jaromir Jagr
Mark Giordano.
There are certainly others who could be considered better players by the time Eichel's career is up.

Jesus, I said “potential” to be the best ever. I’m in my mid 30s, and as much as I love Iggy, I certainly hope that some day another Flame surpasses him as the best… don’t you?
