Both goal high scoring right wingers, and both with a right hand shot.
Selanne has a Calder, 3 goal scoring titles (one Rocket Richard), and a Cup.
Iginla has 2 Rocket Richard's, an Art Ross, and a Pearson (now Ted Lindsay Award), but no cup yet.
Iginla has cracked 50 goals twice, Selanne has 3 times, and one of those times was 76 goals.
Selanne has 4 100+ point seasons, Iginla has 3 90+ seasons. (might be due to playing more of his career in the "dead puck era", but Selanne still hit 109 points in 96/97, which many view as the start of the dead puck era..
Selanne so far
634 goals/701 assists for 1,335 points, in 1,253 games.
Iginla so far
477 goals/518 assists for 995 points, in 1,101 games.
Selanne's career is near its end, but Iginla's is far from over, but I can imagine he'll be sticking around for a while, maybe even staying with Calgary
based on a combination of both peak and career... Who's the better player?
my vote goes to Selanne, but based on my avatar, that's not a surprise
