His mere presence is causing centers to drop like flies. Crosby, check. Malkin, check. Heads up, Sutter
Iggy has been quite dangerous in the few early games. When on the ice, his line has been driving the play more often than not. (Advanced stats support this too.)
His goal was good, driving the net. One of his assists was in a game winner with Malkin, nice passes, a shot where the goalie gave up a rebound that Malkin knocked in. Another assist was on a game winner, really good contribution to solid PP unit and his one timer got tipped. His D game has been decent too.
I don't see him as having trouble keeping up, more adjusting and finding chemistry. But contributing to meaningful goals
