: First of all, I was a different player. My goal was to be the best I could be and help the team. If I didn't play the way I wanted to play, I wasn't very happy. Some people don't care how they play; they just wait for the [word not understandable]. I'm the opposite. I want to be the best every night -- or at least I wanted to be the best every night when I was younger. I felt a big responsibility for the team. I was making the most money, and I felt if I am not going to play well the team's not going to play well. That's the way I feel. Right now I changed because I'm not that good player anymore. I'm just happy to be around the guys, try to help those guys who are better than me.
This was Jagr's reply to a Post-Gazette question about the differnce between coming back to Pittsburgh as a member of aanother squad (be it Caps, Rags or Flyers)....I think it's a very honest answer....it shows that he's not the arrogant, self centered character that he was famously noted as....I'm glad to see it.
