But in my opinion, a jersey retirement is reserved for generational or near-generational players.

You needn’t worry though, #9 is officially retired.
“Generational” relating to hockey or just to Calgary?

Flames’ “generationals”: McDonald => Iginla => Giordano => Tkachuk(?)
Hockey “generationals”: Iginla(?)

Retirements are about the player’s impact to the club, not to hockey.
