Have to wonder if Jagr, even injured, was providing some of that dressing room leadership when it looked like they turned the corner and had the win streak going. Right after that he was gone and the team had two weeks off over three weeks and they never looked good since. Lack of effort, consistency, and competitiveness had disappeared.
If that's the case than some changes to the teams character have to be made or this team will do nothing but compete for mediocrity.
