The biggest reason for me and I'm surprised it hasn't been brought up yet is the circus and distraction that would follow him around. Hockey more than any other sport is about team. Caring for your teammates and doing anything for the guy in the stall beside you. I think the flames are doing a great job instilling this into the room.
In the event Jarg is brought into the fold it quickly becomes about him. Reporters are asking the young guys " how does it feel to hang with Jagr" Jarg this, Jarg that. You quickly forget about the message and goal at times and can become a negative distraction.
Stay the course, you have enough leadership and positive influence within the room. No need to bring that circus show to Calgary when we are on the cusp of taking it to the next level
