Jokinen CALGARY, AB — Jarome Iginla netted his 500th career goal in the Calgary Flames 3-1 defeat over the Minnesota Wild on Saturday night. The captain became just the 42nd player in NHL history to accomplish this milestone after his centering attempt hit Wild captain’s Mikko Koivo’s skate and went sailing past Niklas Backstrom. Lance Bouma opened the scoring in the third period, notching his first NHL goal, while Curtis Glencross added his team-leading 17th marker of season later on in the frame.
