He's got at least one more good year in him, but maybe as a 2nd liner. The guy has value, that's all I'm saying. I'm not even saying the flames are a fit, but some of the comments about him needed correction. I'm not even sure I want him on the flames, but he's still a very good player.
The most logical situation and i have no idea why this hasn't happen yet...

He signs in Vegas on a 1 year deal with Vegas with a limited Ntc with the understanding of being moved at the deadline for picks. Jarg stays in the show and moves to a contender when it matters. The buying team gets a useful player at no cap hit at a time teams need an injection. And Vegas most likely adds 2nd end pick or thereabouts, plus gets to showcase one of the games all time best players for half a season
