I didn't say "he'll never be a top line driver" I said this:
"I don't think Iginla can drive first line offence. I think his upside is a complementary front line player. Not a driver."
Neither of us know.

I just stated why he
could, I never predicted anything to make me a Nostradamas, just observations on the kid.

And I don't think he's as physical as his pop.

No offense but to be honest I question how much you've watched him play because lost in his shot and goal scoring ability is his high IQ and passing skills, as for physicality it's hard to tell with a 17 year old but he bangs down low and fights hard/wins battles for the puck, he's very strong now and likely will get a lot stronger, probably won't fight like his old man though.
I'm kind of interested on what you think of your boy Lindstrom's playmaking/hockey sense?
