Young Iggy was able to score fifty goals in the deadest of the dead puck era with little to no equivalent talent on his line. He could easily crush 60 goals with Gaudreau feeding him.
Not to mention the beatings young Iginla would lay on guys who tried to take liberties with Gaudreau. Iggy had a temper on the ice (even more so when he was younger) and getting him mad was the worst thing an opposing team could do. So teams would not want to get Iggy mad… so they might avoid going after Johnny. Which would mean more space for Gaudreau… which is the worst thing and opposing team can do against him. It would be a glorious combination.
