those slamming Iginla for not hustling back on that goal need to watch the play again. There is zero chance he was getting back into that play. The puck took a bounce off a skate when Iginla was trying to chip it out in the zone. He wasn't trying to be cute like some others have said either. Iginla, had to stop, turn around and by that time, the puck was already on Brodziak's stick and Iginla was 7 feet away. It was a bang bang play, Iginla would not have got him if he had the speed of Jay Bouwmeester. It just wasn't going to happen.
You need to get off his case, I don't fault him at all on that play.
