87-88 is the first year that they list ENG, here are the top 10 all-time leaders of ENG since 1987:

Code:

Hossa 		= 37/499 = 7.4%
Iginla 		= 32/608 = 5.3%
Lemieux		= 30/545 = 5.5%
Gretzky		= 30/351 = 8.5%
P. Bure		= 28/437 = 6.4%
Selanne		= 26/684 = 3.8%
Ovechkin	= 26/518 = 5.0%
Tkachuk		= 24/538 = 4.5%
Alfredsson	= 23/444 = 5.2%
Kovalchuk	= 22/417 = 5.3%

So yes, Iggy got a fair number of empty net goals but it was smack dab in the middle of the percentage of ENGs that elite goal scorers seemed to get them.

Hossa and Gretzky are the 2 standouts.
