I would think Iginla's ability to finish a play would be as big an asset beside Bennett and Versteeg as it would on the power play.

Jagr was one of the best 5v5 wingers in the league last year. For all the talk of his decline, Barkov only played 61 games last year and Huberdeau played in 31.
Jagr at 44 wasn't suited to being his team's best player. Which he kinda was.
Iggy is not close to the player Jagr is at this stage of their careers. I'd rather have Iggy than Glass, but no way I want him over Jagr.
