Eaves = Less cap hit, a little bit younger, more teams interested. Iginla will likely only have a handful of teams interested at most, plus he's been public about wanting out. Nobody is going to overpay for him, he will be had on the cheap...wherever he ends up. But yes the Avs are a terrible team. Landeskog has like only 5 more points (be it less games played) than Iginla so that should put in perspective how bad that team really is. Iginla is just about done, no doubt, but I think his numbers would be a bit better had he been on a different team this season.
