If Iginla is BPA, great. Otherwise, pick BPA.

I think if it's close, you go with Iginla. It's also about selling tickets and a new building with a star Iginla on the roster has to be pretty intriguing.
I remember reading an article a little while ago (can't find it) how the Devils had Kent Johnson ranked higher but it was close and Luke was available. Due to the intangibles (keeping your fans happy, keeping your star happy) they made the call to go for Luke. I don't think you can argue with that one today.
