I think a healthy Iggy could help the powerplay and offer the same kind of off ice leadership Jagr did that the players, coaches and manager have been praising.

Yes, but only if all the pieces come together just perfectly.

Nope. Iginla might be fit, but he is not going to be in game shape. And we have no idea how he would impact the dressing room

"Would you bring Iggy back at the deadline if playoffs bound?"

Absolutely!

Yes I would, because I'm a fan

But I don't think it would be the smartest/best move

If the Flames look like they'll make the playoffs in March, it would mean that they are already playing well so why mess with things and bring in Iginla?

If they are on the bubble by the deadline, then surely there are better options than Iginla to help with the playoff push.

Actually, I think the only situation where I would bring in Iginla is if the Flames were clearly going to miss the playoffs so he can finish his career as Flame.

Stop it. He’s not coming back.

I doubt Iggy would come play for a incompetent coaching staff here in Calgary.

My heart sunk seeing the news that Fisher was coming out of retirement for exactly this reason.

I'd love to see Iggy return.

I think he'd offer more than some are suggesting. At the very least he'd give a physical presence for a team that could use it.

If we can trade Brouwer then Iggy can sign here. So it is almost impossible.

Can't be any worse that Jagr was on the ice, plus he is 100 times more physical than Jagr.

The PP would also be upgraded.

If he comes to play, you know he will be extremely motivated.

I bet what ever team takes a chance on Iginla will be rewarded.
