Every writer in the NHL had Jarome Iginla in their top ten, except for one. One who just happened to want his home-town guy to win. It is not a what-if to opine that Iginla was screwed out of the Hart. I am not arguing a "what-if". I am stating the opinion that Iginla was screwed. A widely held opinion, I would add, given the vote ended in a statistical tie.
