Petr Svoboda (Olympic hero) was also the agent for Cervenka if I recall correctly.

I'd think so. usually they'd say something like we had no contact with the Flames or something, right? I don't know.

When he becomes a Flame, how many of you will be buying a JAGR jersey? Can we have a poll on this?

I really don't like the new jerseys, but for Jagr I'll make an exception.

Nothing wrong with the new jerseys at all, but I hope my comment doesn't turn this thread into a jersey thread

I have a blank jersey from last year that I might get lettered with Jagr if he signs. Haters will say it's not era accurate but whatever.

Bah they're pretty damn close to the same. Plus, it's hard to tell from far away.

Could also mean the Flames are one of a few teams they're talking to and he doesn't want to tip his hand either way.

The article sure makes it look like the Flames are the closest to land Jagr.

It certainly appears as though Flames management is interested in acquiring a veteran RW presence*. And assuming they've determined that Jagr is best placed to help the squad...it begs the question - why not Iggy?

The history and legacy involved with Iggy would cause a hangover of sorts. There are few examples in sports where one of the greatest in a particular franchise's history returns to a team where they crafted their legacy and doesn't make a hash of that legacy. And really, the downside for both parties is significant.

So Jagr it is. Let's hope he lives up to his own legacy which - even if diminished given his current skill set due to age - is still intact.

*basing this off of the reaction of both camps (e.g. unwillingness to shoot down rumours completely).
