My buddy got a pretty clear impression that they were saying Jagr isn't happening without actually saying the words "Jagr isn't happening.".

Granted it was Burke talking and not Tre, and I guess it doesn't "for sure" mean it's impossible, but according to him they made it sound really unlikely.

I guess we can still hope?
For the short time I listened to the FAN this morning the host on the Pinder hour was fairly emphatic that Jagr wasn't happening. Treliving has been on the station the past couple days and perhaps that is the message the organization wants to send?

Maybe they want to downplay it and as soon as our hopes are down they sign him.

Maybe they are in the mix for Duchene?
