Is he the Shannahan of this team? Is he the Niewendyk? The Fleury? The Nolan, heck Nolan did very little in Salt Lake, but at least he got regular powerplay time.
I'm just looking forward to Sunday now.....but the issue still bugs me.
At least the media is prodding a little bit.....

Thing is, it's not just Iginla. Richards and Morrow aren't getting any respect either, and those three were light years ahead of Getzlaf, Perry and Staal. Not to mention Thornton, Toews and Nash.
Babcock wanting to shorten his bench is fine, but he cut the wrong line. The Ducks line should have been dropped. After all, if you tell these three guys you want them to grind it out, and you need a grinding goal, why aren't you using these guys in the situation you are saying you want them in?
Just mind boggling.
