Top 20 All-Time Flames Players (#1)

Stolen from Devils board.

Vote for you think was the best all time flames players.

Players should have played at least a decent amount of time, to make an impact on the franchise. So this does not include players like Brett Hull.

I'm going with Iginla, I think he made the greatest impact on the franchise out of any of these players, him playing his whole career here also has a lot to do with that.

#2 is #1.

Also, FWIW I think Fleury definitely gives Iginla a run for his money as far as forwards are worth. Fleury is just over 1 PPG (adjusted) while Iginla is just under. Iginla is the better goal scorer and physical player, although Fleury was physical too. Fleury was the more versatile player as well, able to play all three forward positions well. Very close call there.

Fleury (as much as I love him) was no where near the Leader that Iginla is.

I hope people don't vote just based on "stats" they should vote on who was most important to the Flames Franchise overall. This isn't "best player to play for the flames". Its "best Flame".

Big difference.

Loob & Lanny should definitely be in the top five, imo. They are for me, at least.

Unless the Swede you're referring to is Nilsson

Iginla. I mean, he is likely the best leader in Flames history. He also has over 500 goals and 1,000 points as a Flame. How is that not the best Flames player?

I love Lanny and he was a great player but when he came to the Flames he only had 3 ppg seasons and when he won the cup while he was the heart of the team he was a shell of the player he was in 7 or 8 years prior. Like I said the only player that was as dominate for as long as Iginla was MacInnis but I think Iginla in his prime was the best player to ever where the Flaming C.
