It's odd some are putting more thought into how Iginla started the tournament then how he ended it. The posted Cliff Fletcher suggesting Iginla and Crosby were the third line for the Gold Medal game is not only revisionist history, it's downright stupid.
In the gold medal game, Iginla was 8th in TOI among CDN forwards.

Toews, Nash, Staal, and Marleau all had more shifts than Crosby, and Richards has as many.
