A lot of people would say Iggy and Kipper carried the Flames to within one game of a championship. Guy knows what it takes to get there in a full season. If he never made the cup finals before, I guess you could say he wouldn't be earning a cup in PITT. But the fact is he has been there and was the driver of the bus to get there.
Its not like he is going to be napping on the bench while the rest of the team does the work. He's going to put up good points with two of the best centers in the game feeding him the puck. I don't understand where people get this sense that Iginla is riding on the coat tails of the team to get a cup.
Truth is, his talents put that team over the top even though Crosby and Malkin are the best players.
