I'll admit to putting Iggy on the same level as Sakic for quite some time now, however I think it's safe to say a large portion of that was due to the fact that I have huge homer goggles for most players that play for the Flames. Since he's moved on and thus as have I, I have been able to take a more objective look at his career and where he stands as a player.
Don't get me wrong he's still an amazing player, one that comes along very rarely but he's still not in the same league as a guy like Sakic. Bourque's Twin did a good tier comparison a couple post up that I think is fairly accurate.
