Iginla: Never played on a team that experts predicted would challenge for the Stanley Cup. Him and Kiprosuff led Calgary to a Stanley Cup Final in 2004 (much better than Ovechkin has ever done). From 2003-04 until 2008-09, the Flames had good teams, but not even close to a Stanley Cup favorite.

Iginla played for the Penguins when they were super good.
Anyways, I think it's more significant that Ovechkin has led his team to a decade of being contenders. He will probably be remembered as a choker without a cup though.
