I don't think it will matter though, he's going to get picked before we stand up. Especially if he continues this play into round 2 of the playoffs.
I think it counts for something ONLY if everything is equal or comparative ie. it's a coin flip between Iginla or some other prospect that's also highly ranked. Then by all means, we should take Tij, and there are definitely added benefits to having another Iginla in the organization. Conversely, there's also added risk, as that much pressure on the kid could also stunt his development.
