Looking at that Kamloops team, damn, how does a guy who goes on to be the best player in the world only finish 7th in team scoring, wild. They must have been stacked or Iggy was just a total unicorn development wise.

That was indeed a stacked team. Their record that year was 52-14-6. Two of the players ahead of Iginla in scoring were Darcy Tucker and Shane Doan.
However, I don't think Huska ever played much on a line with Iginla. Iginla's regular centre was Hnat Domenichelli. The Flames eventually traded for Domenichelli because they thought he would have chemistry with Iginla at the NHL level, too. Oops.
