Flyers sign Jagr

[dash]

No official confirmation or dollars known, but it is a 1 year deal...

 

[dash]

Just confirmed by TSN...

 

[rares]

Craziness...

 

[Slimpikins]

I wonder if it was the best offer or if it was done out of spite from Shero withdrawing his offer?

 

[Comeds]

I wouldnt think Jagr would sign somewhere to spite someone.

3.8 million is too high IMO.

3.3 million cap hit says Dreger...

 

[SLY]

Hahaahahahahahahah!!! I just saw this on my phone. Wow...

 

[Nasty_Magician]

Not liking the dollars. It remains to be seen, but I think that money could have been better spent. No certainty with Jagr.

I heard on the radio that he is almost broke. Apparently he doesn't manage his money very well.

Uncontrolled gambling is a dangerous thing, Boss...

Are you talking about about the Flyers or Jagr?

 

[puckhead]

bit of a kick in the nuts to the Pens.

I thought was like an exaggeration. Is gambling really that big of a problem for him?

I'm not all that sure, but I'm willing to bet you that it is.

 

[SLY]

Willing to bet 3.3 million?

There were several stories floating around that he was into the casinos in Atlantic City for millions of dollars.

I think guys like him, Jordan, Pete Rose etc. were just so good at their sports, that it's not a thrill to them anymore. Gambling is their only way to get that rush/high because it puts them in a situation where they can lose.

They did make mention of a gambling problem. Must be pretty serious. I wonder if his wife's name is Janet?

LOL

Yep. Pens fans are not going to be happy, though I'm sure a lot are going to reason it with Jagr being past his prime.

(was that Loki raging I just heard?)

3.3 is to much imo
