Some posters are acting like he could be a healthy scratch for half the season, get 10 points overall and they wouldn't care because of how much he helped develop the kids off the ice. If that's the expectation, then hire him as a player development coach. Don't pay him $2M and take up a roster spot just to mentor the kids....

I honestly wouldn't care if Jagr ended up being a healthy scratch for half the season, getting 10 points overall because...

JAROMIR FRICKIN' JAGR!

Would be great if the flames could persuade jagr to take on a coaching role at the end of the season.

Also taking into account things said by Barkov about Jagr just furthermore supports the suggestion that he is a great teacher, and player.

Yes, he's going to be a great mentor for his teammates. That's a huge positive to his signing.

No, he's not going to give Glen Gulutzan tips on who to put on the powerplay or what line combinations to use.

He said in an interview he wants to play till 50 or 60.. can't remember which. Even if it's not in the NHL. That would be great if he did though!

He defies the aging process! 24 years in the NHL and a pure legend. It took him long enough to get signed, but now you can show your support for the muffin man with the Fiery Legend T. (Size Guide)

I'm glad that one of the all-time greats is now a Flame. His career stat sheet doesn't fit on my computer screen even at 75% zoom!

You're welcome.

Man, it's crazy watching the hooking and holding from those 90s clips.

It is amazing that Jagr has been able to produce throughout the past few decades given how much the game has changed.

I went to order one of these, and just a heads up, it’s an American site! Price is in USD. So you can look forward to paying GST, import tarrif on a made in China product, and exchange rate. Will end up being ~$45

Hoser Hockey, and they’re based in California wtf? A bit misleading

[JohnnyB]

If whoever shared that link is part of their Hoser Army, it looks like they're making $1 every few seconds off sales at that site. Not bad.

On behalf of Lexus of Calgary I want to welcome Jaromir Jagr to Calgary. GO FLAMES, GO JAROMIR !

Does Jagr have a really small head?? Seriously, this is an interesting little interview, but I keep finding myself distracted by how his hat fits. Who can wear a cap like that? He literally couldn't tighten it anymore. Is that why he has such big hair?
