It speaks to who is a big game performer, and who is not. Iginla still brings an edge, competitiveness, and physicality at 39 that Vrbata has never shown in his entire career.

My preference on a rental (ultimately is simply not to pick one up):
1. Iginla
2. Sharp
3. Vrbata

Acquiring Vrbata is effectively acquiring 2016 Hudler (although probably the un-injured version of that Hudler). I'd much sooner get Iginla, have him be the 3rd line RW and push Brouwer down to the 4th line RW for a very strong ability to roll 4 lines.

Uhhhh have you watched Iginla at all in the last 3 years? He brings nothing of what you said.

You seriously just brought up career stats of a 40 year old?

Vrbata is a much better player than Iginla right now. Like it isn't even close.
