I feel like the guy who runs that Hockey Authentic site is gonna show up for work this morning and laugh when he finds like 50 Jagr retro jersey orders in their queue.

Another great example of a proficient GM.
Likely kicked the tires with Jagr earlier and explained the Bennett deal needed to get done. Probably looked in again after that but the dollars were more than he wanted to spend, plus he wanted to see what his young players and hopefully a rejuvenated Brouwer could do in camp.
Gets to camp and none of the young players look NHL ready, Brouwer is quicker, but still not ready to be an impact winger. Then he sees Bennett looks really ready and has to add to make sure another Bennett season isn't wasted.
Goes back to Jagr who still doesn't have an NHL home, and now the dollars make more sense to both sides.
You have to have a view and stick to it, don't sign players out of fear of not getting them .

I wonder whether at his age they would want to pace him by placing him on a lower line

Lower than the 3rd line with Bennett?

Not to mention.. Jagr was in the building for Bennett's 4 goal game against Florida.
He's probably excited to play on Bennetts wing as well

It finally makes sense why Jagr is playing for so many teams.
He owns Hockey Authentic!

No, compared to suggestions he plays on the top line. We can agree he’s not a 4th liner

So, this is easily the greatest player to every play for the Flames right? Not discrediting the hall of famers that gave us their best years (looking at you Jarome), but by name only, has anyone come close?

Need a rough number as to how many jerseys the group will be getting, then I can contact the Hockey Authentics guy to see what sort of volume discount they can offer...
