Didn't think it was a bad signing at the time, but hearing him talk about not being in shape was troubling. Would really have loved to have seen a better effort from him, but he is old, so thems the breaks.

Hope that both sides keep it classy if he is indeed going to leave. Maybe this will free up a spot to sign Iginla.

This is the kind of crap i'm talking about. The "don't let the door hit you on the way out"/"we're too good for you"/"you're a ####ty person" type of comment is how the Oilers handle their departures. It's why they have a tough time attracting players. It speaks poorly for their market.

We're better than that. Stop it with this kind of crap. Jagr didn't work out. Fine. We're moving on. Wish him the best and thank him for the work he did with Bennett, Tkachuk and Jankowski while he was here.
