[Signing] Flames agree to terms with Jaromir "the GOAT" Jagr (1yr, $1 mil + $1 mil bonuses)

John Shannon @JSportsnet
No one has ever worn the #68 in the history of the Flames franchise. Not in Atlanta. Not in Calgary. Until now.

If I'm a Flames player today, it's a huge vote of confidence from management and Jagr that they think they have what it takes to compete for a championship. I'll bet the boys will have a blast playing this season.

Can’t find the red ones anywhere? Where did you get it? Whites are all Fanatics have.

Most muted response on this all day, but then I looked to see what you'd said about Jagr possibly signing here before.

Where did you order it from if you don't mind me asking? I may be in the market for one now

Give Gaskal some time, it was just made official and he has to collect the tears...I mean comments from other fans. He hasn't let us down, I don't think he'll start.

This is like Manchester United signing Zlatan Ibrahimovic.

Jagr: "Welcome to my world, Flames"

It goes without saying we need an ATL report for this. Gaskal, bring us the goods babyyy.

Gaudreau / Bennett / Jagr?

He will play! He has been staying in Frolik basement the whole time! He will get a hat trick against the greasers! Oilers fan panic and Todd Mcawesome fired after 5 games!

I can't quote for some reason but for the people asking about retro reebok jerseys I ordered from here:

https://hockeyauthentic.com/products...-reebok-jersey

I researched them first and they have a bunch of good reviews on reddit* of people saying they are legit. $180 incl tax and shipping (free). They say their jerseys are all stitched name/number and they are based out of Vancouver.


*if they turn out to be total scam and these are chinese knockoffs or heat pressed name/numbers, please don't blame me. I'm just trusting other people on the internet. But they seem to be well known on reddit as being legit. There were like a dozen threads about them.

I hope it's the latter. I'm sure his conditioning is fine but give him a few extra days to get comfortable in the system and he can make his debut on home ice. Beesley better start warming up those vocal cords!

[rodszta]

Great addition!

I didn't think I wanted this but the fist-pumping victory dance I just did 10 minutes ago in front of a friend of mine (Dallas Stars fan) suggests otherwise.

There's a Canucks' fan who lives down here too. I'm going to look for him now.

Now, let's trade Brouwer+Stajan for Duchene and bring on the season! Does anyone have any dirt on Sakic?

Gaudreau-Monahan-Duchene
Tkachuk-Backlund-Frolik
Ferland-Bennett-Jags
Versteeg-Jankowski-Lazar/Hathaway

[Gaudfather]

The travelling Jagrs will be in their glory!

[Bawbag]

Great signing
