The Calgary Flames pulled off a family legacy move by selecting Joe Iginla, the youngest son of hockey legend Jarome Iginla, with the 68th overall pick in the 2023 NHL draft. Though not a top-ranked prospect, Joe’s breakout season—15 goals, 31 points in 59 games split between the Oil Kings and Giants—showed impressive growth. With his brother Tij drafted in 2024 and sister Jade in the PWHL, the Iginla name is everywhere. At just 16, Joe’s potential is undeniable, and the Flames may have struck gold with a smart, family-driven gamble.
