Meh. Went and checked. It's not that bad.
Obviously some over the top hatred, but that's internet for you.
Mostly I think they're saying some rather obvious things. Slow, more of a complementary player these days, points don't tell the real story etc. Speculating on injuries. Doesn't win enough puck battles, bad defensively, overpaid, overused by the coaches, team mates forcing pucks to him, inconsistent. Would be fine as cheap scoring depth.
Really a lot of same stuff that was said on this board before he was traded, just a lot worse. I wouldn't really disagree on the basics, even if the tone is obviously over the top right now. There's some PO'd hockey fans there.
Iggy can still put up points, but in most games he doesn't bring much beyond that. This is hardly news. The man is old.
