It seems like teams always pay more for guys who out the puck in the net, not help keep it out.
Again you misunderstood or misread my post. I am not comparing Backlund to Iggy for God's sake, I was saying that making the playoffs and winning in the playoffs isn't the only way to measure a player's value-that is skewed by the team the player is on. That is why I used Iggy's playoff record as a comparison.

P.S, see AshasX last post.
