Guys like Todd Bertuzzi came in and didn't increase their point totals by 20 points, and guys like Mikael Samuelsson did not decrease their point totals by 20 points, in fact Bertuzzi's technically dropped and Samuelsson's rose.

I would agree and would note that as much as the home fan base maligns Iginla, Zetterberg has outscored him once in the past 5-6 years.
