Based on his agent's comments last night, it doesn't sound like there were a lot of teams interestetd in Iginla

When he signs a 1 day ceremonial contract so he can retire a Flame. Lets be honest, after he left Calgary his career hasn't been exactly awesome.

I really hoped Iggy could join a contender. It's looking like the Kings won't make the playoffs.

It's time to fully move on from any hopes Iginla would return. Unless he re-signs next year he's never coming back.

Hahaha fair enough, and I'm in so long as it's all about a one day retirement contract

It doesn't make any sense to me at all.

Why are the kings buying right now? They are out of it!

....I think a lot of people here are going to be eating crow here. Iggy will do well in LA, and LA needs him. He's not going in to be anyone's savior, but he'll help their PP, and he can finish. Good move for LA.

Kings are going to be in the playoffs. (St. Louis will be out)

Iggy should sign with the flames one more time. For a 1 day contract so he can retire a flame. Thats it.

I love this move from a Flames perspective.

Iggy will be an anchor on that struggling offense.

I wonder who will get to wear #12 (or will Iggy wear #24)

Asking the important questions...

Why all the hate on Jarome? LA was likely the only team interested in him. Better he go there with a chance at the playoffs at least than sitting and rotting in Colorado.

I don't mind this from a selfish perspective that a big slow team gets a little bit slower.

I'd rather have Dwight King on my team than Iginla at this point.

They're only 1 point down on the blues.

So the kings dump a 27 year old King for a 39 year old Iggy. Bizarre things happening in LA.

Going to be some significant regret when we kill the Kings playoffs hopes.

All the best Jarome! Go win a cup, I can gladly cheer for Sutter and LA when the Flames are kicked out first round.

Good, keep him away from this group. Now beat the hell out of him and the Kings.

Good luck in theory Iggy, sorry the Kings are out.
In another year or so, he'll be chasing Brent Ashton for # of teams played for. Sad.
