Wherever the Flames have him ranked, he is clearly rocketing up pretty much every scout's draft ranking. This wouldn't be a situation where the Flames go way off board.

But chances are looking pretty good that Iginla will be gone by the time the Flames pick. Imagine he becomes Bedard's RW for the next decade?
The hawks would have to go on a hell of heater at the end of the year t draft Iginla. Even if they won every game for the rest of the year I doubt the Hawks would finish high enough in the standings to draft Iginla.
