What youngster is going to be held back from this signing?
Jagr brings size, hands, and puck possession that this team could use. He is a tireless worker and a great role model to our current young core.
Jagr would be brought in to play on either the top line or with Bennett imo. His role would be to play with young players.
I think with Jagr Jankowski still makes the team so maybe Shinkaruk, Poirier, or Foo have to wait a little longer to get their chance but I am not banking on any of those 3 to be able to play the top 9 role Jagr would play.
