Iggy made a mistake. I have no idea why he signed for the Avs other than for the money and term, it makes for family stability and that makes sense.

But has he been worth the outlay? Have the Avs been worth it?

That contract was a mistake on behalf of both parties....but at least Iggy got paid.

It sounds cynical but that matters a lot in pro sports. You dont want to be one of the ones that goes broke after the game. Gotta take what you can get while you can get it and Iggy has done well for himself.

I think he took two stabs as being a mercenary for the cup and they didnt pay off, so he took a more pragmatic approach.

Take the cash while the outstretched hand is still offering it.
