This because it is the best Flames moment ever, achieving The Ultimate Goal, speaks to all fans and anyone associated with the team.
I would like to see it, w/ new arena. In my lifetime!

No statue. Do a cauldron. Represents the Flames, Olympics, and our new wildfire overlords.

I’d like to throw my hat in the ring.
I have basically all the same qualifications as Lanny, minus playing in the nhl and winning a cup.

All I can get

Lanny didn't like the commemorative sculptures of his iconic cup-hoisting pose (some company was trying to hawk at the time). Wouldn't accept one from the mayor in front of city hall.

If it’s Lanny with the cup, I will accept it. Hall of Fame, and Captain of a Cup winning team.
Love Iginla. Love Kipper. Love Fleury. But the standard needs to be high. Cup. Captain. Hall of Fame.

Ah, so you have an all-time great mustache as well?

I don't think it will be a player.

I wouldn't mind seeing some sculpture like this to remember Ken King with.

I was wondering the same thing. There was a Lanny one too, wasn't there?
One thing I hope makes the move over from the Dome is the mask.

Iginla won a cup too, he just was stolen of it by poor officiating/review office.

All door handles to the entrance doors should be robotic hand crushers in King’s honour.

GOAT!

Knowing the way the Flames do these things, it would be a statue of Jim Peplinski wearing the '04 road jersey (which he never wore, and road version because why do something crazy like use the home "best-selling jsersey of all-time" version) with the flag shoulders added on from the jersey that we finally got rid of that everyone hated.
Not that I have anything against Pepper, but tell me picking him wouldn't be exactly what this org would do.
