We know Jagr said he wants to come back, and Shero made an offer, and Jagr had days to say "Yes, I will do it." I feel like his agent was the one who forced him into a bidding war.

I feel like his agent was the one who forced him into a bidding war.I dont necessarily disagree with this, but he could have called Mario or Shero on his own and and committed to the Pens. Reports had been out there for a couple of days that he had done just that, with the Pens withdrawing the offer, he apparently didnt.EDIT: Wings have also now pulled out of the Jagr sweepstakes.

We know Jagr said he wants to come back, and Shero made an offer, and Jagr had days to say "Yes, I will do it." I feel like his agent was the one who forced him into a bidding war.The agent works for the player, and can't "force" anything (though some have been known to intentionally deceive players into thinking that a team doesn't want them if it's not in the agent's best interest for the signing to happen, which sucks... and I think is illegal.)The blame for this has to fall on Jagr, who either thinks he's worth more than he is, or wasn't really 100% set on playing for the Pens (though I can't imagine why he wouldn't be - it's a perfect situation for him.) Just heard the Flyers mentioned for the first time in all of this, which I hate, because it's just so right for him to be a Penguin, and he'd just be a guy wearing an orange jersey as opposed to a "Flyer", if that makes any sense.

charger77 Posted July 1, 2011 Author Share Posted July 1, 2011 I'm not a fan of retirement tours and reunion specials but I though Jagr on Crosby's wing would have been fun to watch.

CS85 Posted July 1, 2011 Share Posted July 1, 2011 Blurbs goin' around that Jagr might be a Senator. It looks like all 32 teams are having a powwow trying to decide who has to end up with Jagr.

Feaster needs to realize it's time to start fresh and starting sending our older guys out. We lose Adam Pardy to Dallas for 4 Million over 2 years, but sign Chris Butler to a 1.25 million over 2 years. Good value for us!

Sodboy13 Posted July 1, 2011 Share Posted July 1, 2011 Puckguy may have been joking on Twitter, but I think he's right: Jagr to Florida. They can give him whatever money he wants without any expectation of performance attached to it.O'Donnell, MacLean, and Mayers. Um, please call security, because it appears someone mistakenly let Bob Pulford back in the office and he's doing things on the Scotch again.

CS85 Posted July 1, 2011 Share Posted July 1, 2011 O'donnell can bring some toughness and maybe get Scott the hell out as the 7th d-man. He's insurance in case Campoli peaces out, and adds some veteran edge that was missing last year. Mayers and MacClean to me are nothing contracts. Mayers won't play 30 games for the Hawks this year, MacClean's backup in case Beach/Stalberg fail out. Quote "You are nothing more than a small cancer on this message board.
