You talk about overvaluing players, but you do the exact opposite. Iginla is easily in the top 30 wingers of all time and is certainly pushing top 10.
No, I just don't have homer glasses on as hard as some people. 30 might have been a stretch, but not near the stretch of saying he's a top 10 winger. More likely around the 20-25 mark, give or take a few spots.

Ah, my mistake. No, I just fail to see how Iginla is in the same category as guys like Hull, Selanne, Bossy, and LaFleur (Maybe Robitaille too). Iggy's great, and should be proud to have had him for as long as we did, however he's closer to a Mats Sundin type then a Mike Bossy type, still a Hall of famer either way.
