While Iginla has had some slow starts over the last couple of years, the idea of "Iginla always starts slow is not actually true:

Jarome historically is a very strong starter who slows down slightly. At the very least he is a consistent producer based on his first 15 games production.

The reality is the opposite of the myth.

The only years when he can truly be considered a slow starter is 2004, 2007 and 2011.
