I do think that if Tij Iginla's name was anything other than Tij Iginla that we likely wouldn't be talking about him nearly as much with our pick as we are. Not to say that he isn't a perfectly fine pick at number 9, but I think we'd all be more focused on taking the best available Center or dman, because our organizational depth is already at wing.
I think if it wasn't for Iginla we'd be more focused on one of the dmen or Lindstrom/Catton/Helenius.
