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.

Did you watch his 2nd half last season? he hit a wall and looked like he was skating in quicksand, there's a reason the 23rd place Florida Panthers just flat out washed their hands of him and it's not their forward depth for scoring goals.
If Jagr would agree to a PTO then fine but I suspect he wouldn't out play more than 2 of those prospects you mentioned
