Maybe I was exaggerating a bit, Bourque and Hagman could be 2nd liners on a bad team, Stajan is VERY borderline and has inflated numbers because of 1st line minutes in the weak eastern conference. That leaves you with one legit first liner and 3 borderline top 6 guys to score most of your goals. And the proof is in the pudding. The Canucks 2nd line has scored more than any combination of a "top line" for the Flames that you can possibly make, and that would only be if Iginla wasn't playing with plugs like Conroy because he has no chemistry with anyone else.

really, with skills (combine with a bit of grit) like that, i'd say he belongs on a second line.
