People need to stop expecting him to carry this team on his back. The guy is 35 he shouldn't be the #1 offesnive weapon. It is not his fault management over the years has ben unable to get a successor to the franchise that Iggy could pass the torch to.
Outside of the Phoneix game this team has brought effort every single game, they are built soft, and have no centers. Iggy is the one that has to fight a 3rd liner when the goalie is run? He shouldn't have to do it all anymore and should be a complimentary player not the focal point. That is the reason he should be traded not because he is horrible in the room or a terrible leader as some people try to argue. Some people expect too much from him at this stage in his career.

I completely agree with this. I do think however that the current management have made some great picks in the draft the last two years and I hope that they can stick to this pattern of drafting skill. The tough, power forward types are hard to come by, but so far I like the direction Feaster and crew are taking.
This will take patience. Hopefully we all it. I hate to see him go but I think right now we aren't worse off if he is gone this season.
If we can resign him for like 3 to 4 mill for 3 more seasons, I would be happy to keep him.
