Iginla by and large (especially since the lockout) has usually played with first line players, not superstars but legitimate first line hockey players.

Agreed. And even though Langkow wasn't Adam Oates in terms of passing. both Tanguay and Huselius were elite passers (arguably both were top 10 playmakers during Iginla's tenure) and set up Iginla for some pretty sweet plays from 2007-2010... we had a damn good team during those few years.
