This is exactly what I mean though, my take is that there are only 2 maybe 3 forwards who have convincingly separated themselves from Iginla. Celebrini, Lindstrom, maybe Demidov.
Catton, Helenius... maybe are better than iginla? But also maybe not. And the familial tie seals the deal for me, you pick Iginla and don't look back.
