Treliving is notoriously thorough and willing to work the phones, this could all be the result of:

"Hey Jagr, what are you looking for? $4M? (<-I made that number up) Okay, thanks."

I disagree. I love Iggy to death but I think this team is done with him. Not out of malice or not liking him or anything of that sort, I just dont think hes the kind of guy that you can bring back.

The expectations on the rest of the team would be unreal and the expectations on Iggy would be ludicrous. It would be a circus sideshow and neither Iggy nor the rest of the team deserve that.

Let sign him for one day to retire his number and put it in the rafters as he deserves. And thats it.
