Now he is completely out of shape it sounds like, and does not want to come in under-conditioned and risking injury.
I wonder how long it will have to take?
It certainly is a little bit annoying to me, as we could definitely use him in Anaheim, of all places!

First of all, they were jokes. That wasn't whining. That's just his personality. I wouldn't read anything into it.
Second, he's been training all off-season by himself. He didn't have a training camp. He just needs to get his timing back. He's also 45 years old, it might take him a week to get ready. If he feels playing would hurt the team, then I'm fine with him not playing.
Jagr will be good to go soon.
