Jagr is clearly chasing personal records at this point. So how well he fits into the system and buys in remains to be seen.

However I believe he's 56 games away from breaking Howe's all time games played record. After the Gretzky's goal/assist/point totals, this has got to be the most prestigious record in hockey, and one of the biggest in all of sports. If he signs, he has a chance to do it in Flames silks on home ice.

That brings to game 56 to tie (vs Edmonton) and game 57 to set a new record (@ home vs Vegas). God damn...I know which game I'm getting tickets to.

Of course all dependent on if he signs. But it would be pretty cool.
