I'd take Iginla over Jagr like I said, but on the ice Jagr's skill and talent vaults over Iggy easily
He holds nearly every offensive record for the Flames.
Why is Jagr so awesome? What about Gordie Howe? Dino Ciccarelli? Mike Gartner? All great RW's, why is everyone holding Jagr up over these guys?
The top three RW's IMO,
1. Howe
2. Iginla
3. Jagr
Iginla and Howe wouldn't run off on their team because they got home sick. Though he was/is still a phenomenal talent. I wouldn't pick him to build a team around knowing he'd run off to Czechoslovakia at the first opportunity.
Take away Ron Francis, the second best playmaker ever (career wise), and Jagr has what, only 2 for his career?
Watching the Flames/Jackets game, they just had a 'thank you Jarome' video on the jumbotron at 12 mins into the 1st and now the fans are giving him a standing ovation. Respect, Calgary.
Flames posted the video on thier site:

Really? Are there rules against it or something?

Just going over twitter, the Calgary bench all stood and tapped their sticks on the boards. Refs gave them a little extra time during the stoppage to do so. Classy move all around.
NBC Sports Network just indicated Iginla is slated to make his debut against the Islanders tomorrow, but my local news, WPXI - Pittsburgh, indicated that Iginla will not play until next week.
Can anyone confirm what NBC Sports Network is saying is true or not?
I think both are pretty much guessing. There wouldn't be any real reason to play Iggy tomorrow. We are on a roll and he's just literally getting in. I don't think there is a need to rush him in.
Makes no sense for him to play tomorrow. With the break between tomorrow's game and Tuesdays, it's perfect for him to ease to a new system and situation without being rushed.
I thought Boston/Philly was, JF. Not 100% sure.
We need one of Rossi's classic tweets to confirm his status for tomorrow.
