His knock is, he always misses 10-20 games a year, and you can't commit term to people like that. He's the perfect veteran free agent signing.

Yep, that's why I'd really like to bring in Jagr if two of Jankowski/Foo/other forward prospects don't make the Flames out of training camp.
Versteeg will miss his games and I could see him and Jagr almost being a platoon with Jagr getting some rest if Versteeg doesn't miss a lot of games, but he probably will.
Injuries will hit and I think Jagr would be a huge addition for this forward group and would pay off throughout the year.
