As we all know, that bum Iginla wasn't even one of the 100 greatest players of all time  . Scrolling through that list does lend credence to the idea that great players might be better executives. It's also still annoying to see the likes of Denis Savard, Lafontaine, D Keith, Toews, or even Sundin on that list ahead of Iggy. |
Lemaire was good, but overshadowed by both his wingers. Funny - he was on the offensive line on a run and gun team and he ended up inventing a supremely defensive style.
