It's really too bad we waited so long to sign him. I think he had one more year in him, but he needed a full training camp to avoid having to catch up to game speed and avoid nagging injuries at that age.
I know hindsight and all but if Jagr was a guy you determined you were likely going to sign either sign him early enough to be part of the team or don't sign him. No one that age is getting a late start and succeeding.
