Jarome Iginla only has a few hours to be dealt from Colorado to a cup contender he desires, and it appears he may have a suitor.

The Los Angeles Kings are reportedly interested in the 39-year-old winger, according to TSN's Bob McKenzie.

Iginla owns a full no-move clause, but has previously said he's willing to waive it for a chance at his first Stanley Cup.

Oddly, while McKenzie says the interest between Los Angeles and Iginla may be mutual, the Kings are currently one point outside a playoff seed in the Western Conference.

However, they're desperate for offense, and Iginla - a surefire Hall of Famer - has 619 NHL goals on his resume. That said, for the struggling Avalanche this season, Iginla's registered just eight goals and 10 assists in 61 games.
