Tangs wasn’t really a fast player, he wasn’t really a top tier puck carrier - he was a complimentary piece to a hockey hall of famer.
Imagine Tanguay here without Iginla. He would have been completely wasted.

I was literally just thinking about Tanguary watching Huberdeau last night when he seemingly refused to shoot.
