To be quite honest, Iginla's so-called "peak" is essentially two seasons: 2001/02 and 2003/04. He was, indeed, arguably top all-around player in those two seasons. His 2002/03 season was pretty underwhelming. Post-lockout it was all about Crosby/Ovechkin. He was still elite for sure, but the "talk" of him arguably being the best in the league was for just two seasons.
