Sure, a lot of that is to do with his body wearing down, but I feel like "it’s not hard to see that Boston’s been a far better home to him than Calgary was the past few seasons" is unnecessary..

Not much difference... I'm sure his corsi or whatever is better but that's going to happen when you go to a much better team.

Iginla looks like a night and day player in Boston. He's contributing mmeaningful minutes instead of getting his cookies.
The Bruins don't measure a successful season in goals scored, they measure it in wins.
He can't shoot like he used to, but that doesn't matter because offense isn't winning games for them.
