I know it's his time, but I have to say, seeing this made official makes me a bit sad. The league needs more guys like Iggy playing the game, not less.
#12 better be hoisted to the rafters

Damn, I honestly never thought this day would come. I remember reading The Herald back in 2001-02 when he was leading the scoring race, seeing his name at the top of the scoring column, and thinking how in the heck was Calgary so lucky to have the leading scorer in the league. I NEVER thought this day would come. He was always immortal to me.
It was a roller coaster of emotions the day he got traded, and I can't help but feel the same now. Time just flies buy

Great news. I'm not one of those fans that enjoys watching HOF players play past their expiry date so I'm glad he's decided to move to the nest phase of his life.

I hope he takes a job with the team - this is the type of guy we need to have around the organization for a long, long time.
