Jaromir should look better as he gets more into game shape, not the other way around.
Sounds like pure speculation, but I think what he is getting at is that Jagr has extremely high standards set for himself. Even if he is a serviceable 3rd liner, that might be enough slippage for him to walk away. I could see it working out that way, but who knows. It was that sucking wind on the bench that had me wondering...

O.K. there has been a lot of talk on whether or not MacTavish has actually done a good job for us, most fans on this board are very basic in their analysis and I feel would change their opinion entirely if the team was successful.
