(The OP left out the playoff records of Sakic and Iginla..... that Sakic could use as HOF credentials on their own)
3 SC rings.
He played most of his career injured or recovering from injuries.
Joe Nieuwendyk two-way centre that played all 3 zones.
Centres are traditionally the straw that stirs the drink..... not that many players that carry a team from the wing.
Sakic and Nieuwendyk were able to raise the Quality of their linemates and year after year the Flames were unable to get a centre to play with Iginla.
No one Langkow, Conroy, Rienprect, Lombardi, Morrsison, Drury, Savard ever was carried to All-Star consideration by playing with Iginla.
The few guys who really played better with Iginla were Tanguay and Cammalleri.
Savard doubled his production once he was away from Iginla. Wirh Kovalchuck and then later with Glen Murray Savard was a 1.25 ppg centre

Who are you talking about? Neither Iggy or Sakic had major injury issues in their careers.
