Don't disagree with this, but I also believe that the ship has sailed on getting good value for Iggy and you now hold him, as he is a better asset then what you will get back. If we moved him 2 years ago, different story. You could very well be correct that it falls on ownership, but can we be sure they specifically blocked a trade?
