Jarome Iginla is hoping for another kick at the can.

Skating with the AHL's Providence Bruins for the second time this week, the 40-year-old said he's hopeful he can land another chance to compete for the Stanley Cup.

Iginla was available to sign a contract throughout the summer, and will need to land a deal before Monday's 3 p.m. ET trade in order to be eligible for the playoffs. He recently underwent a minor hip procedure, and said he doesn't have any potential deals in place.

Last season, Iginla was dealt to the Los Angeles Kings from the Colorado Avalanche in hopes of competing for a Stanley Cup, but the Kings missed out on a playoff berth.

A championship ring is the one omission from Iginla's surefire Hall of Fame resume. In 20 NHL seasons, he recorded 625 goals and 675 assists, while earning four All-Star nods, two Rocket Richards, and the Lester. B Pearson Award in 2001-02.
