Man, this is a tough one. Nieuwy and any of his teams he won championship with, had center depth as well as depth from every forward position. On the Flames, he had wingers that could score or made room for him to score. Since the Flames, before they traded away everyone to the Leafs for nothing, no one really draped all over him like everyone draped over Iggy. With Iggy, basically, it's a one man show for most of his career. Imagine if both were Flames on the same teams year after year - one a right winger and the other a centerman, and both are power forwards. Then, put in one of the following as left wingers: Fleury, Roberts, or Joey Mullen. But, I would take Iggy over Nieuwendyk just for the fact that he did it all on his own with mostly second and 3rd line forwards on his teams in Calgary.
