There are different categories as I see it.
Best player to play for the Flames (for some reasonable period of time)
Best career as a Calgary Flame
Best Calgary Flame of all time
I vote Macinnis as best player to play for the Flames. But this one is very debatable.
I vote Iginla for best career as a flame, Fleury second.
Lanny is best Flame of all time which includes a ton of subjective criteria obviously.
For me, 9, 12 and 14 need to be the retired numbers for the Flames. It just seems so obvious.
