If it only costs you money for whatever cap space we have left, than it really makes no difference since the season is almost over. We’re so weak on Rw depth that any edge you can get is worth it. Even if he’s only a slight upgrade over Brouwer.

There will not be a bidding war for a 38 year old. If Jagr didn’t have teams bidding for him a the start of the season No one and I mean No one should be in a bidding war for Gionta. Your reasoning is highly flawed and is not backed by common sense at all.
