Move him at the deadline and sign him back. They should at least try to get something for him. I am not sold on Jankowski at this point and Gaudreau is small and Bart and Backlund are injury prone. To me management still hasn't done enough to stockpile prospects and picks to be competitive. I think its quite clear in everything King has said not just this, that Iggy has always been off the market in the eyes of ownership. There was also a lot of speculation that part of why Brent was let go was that he wanted a rebuild and ownership said no.
