I don't think you're getting what I"m saying. I think Iggy is a great leader, but if he's traded and you trade a few others and not sign a few others and go with a younger team that has some promise then maybe you have a better team. Gio will probably stay (if he's dealt we'd probably get something good for him) and he'd be a decent leader, same situation with Glencross and Cammy.

A team of Iggy and crap without Iggy wouldn't exactly be crap unless you dealt Iggy for crap. I think everyone forgets that if you trade Iggy we aren't left with this team and no Iggy, we're left with this team and whatever we get for Iggy.

So a team without a few of our current older star players but a few players like Sven would be much better to watch.
