Guarantee he's talking about the Pirates. Dude just doesn't know hockey. The night of the James Neal trade, he spent 3 hours asking for callers to talk about their disappointment about the Super Bowl. The Super Bowl ended 15 days earlier.

Re: Penguins want Jagr back?!
Unfortunately yes. I am 99% certain the Penguins will lose out on Jagr because they trust or / feel he owes the Penguins in signing damn cheap! We will get a similar or worse player at the price wthout and ruining Jagrs legacy and upsetting the fans.KG wrote:Which means...i'm going to low ball you and force your hand....Lesky wrote:RobRossi_Trib Rob RossiRobRossi_Trib Rob Rossi

Jagr is to blame equally here, that must be noted!

The new Warz game should be Jagrwarz, where you have to find which player is actually jagr, and whomever signs him wins.

I cannot listen to his monotone voice. Not to mention the guy is the most negative guy on the radio. And that is saying a lot considering the who's who in annoying sports reporters here in Pittsburgh.IronDukes37 wrote:What does Filiponi have to say about this Anyone listen?

Re: Penguins want Jagr back?!
Shero hopes Jagr "meant what he said by wanting to right by Mario"
June 30th, 2011
June 30th, 2011
http://blog.triblive.com/chipped-ice/20 ... -by-mario/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;“He doesn’t want to force him into a decision,” Shero said of Svoboda.
Shero said the Penguins’ offer to Jagr remains “on the table,” and that not hearing from Jagr tonight would not alter his hope of signing Jagr when the NHL free-agent period opens tomorrow.
“He’s not holding us hostage or anything,” Shero said, adding that he believes the Penguins can sign Jagr and keep right wing Tyler Kennedy given their salary-cap space.
Shero said he never set a deadline of Wednesday for Jagr to accept an offer presented Tuesday after Shero spoke with Svoboda and Jagr.
“Petr thought the decision would be made by Wednesday; I never put a deadline on it,” Shero said. “I said that certainly us, and probably a lot of other teams, would want to know by the start of free agency – that I’d like to have an idea of what’s going on.”
Svoboda said this morning that Jagr had a “tough decision to make” because “Pittsburgh is in his heart.”
Jagr arrived in New York late Wednesday night, Svoboda said.
Jagr, 39, is the headline-grabber in the Penguins’ free-agent equation – though Shero said he hasn’t paid attention reports or talk about the so-called “Jagr Watch.”
He doesn’t see Jagr as a risk on a one-year deal.
“With Jagr, wherever he goes, it’s different hockey than in Russia,” Shero said, comparing the NHL to the Kontinental Hockey League, where Jagr spent the past three seasons.
“It’s an 82-game season here. Are you getting that from Jagr? I don’t know. But on a one-year contract he’s a really good player.”
Shero said he is hoping that Jagr has “meant what he’s said by wanting to do right by Mario (Lemieux).”
Lemieux, the Penguins’ majority co-owner, starred with Jagr for the Penguins in the 1990s – a decade in which they combined to win seven scoring titles and the Stanley Cup twice. Jagr requested a trade from the Penguins during the 2000-2001 season that was highlighted by Lemieux’s stunning comeback from retirement.
Lemieux called Jagr last week to invite him back to the Penguins.
Longtime associates of Lemieux and NHL agents told the Tribune-Review on Wednesday they believed Jagr had worked out parameters of a deal to remain with the Penguins. Svoboda would neither confirm nor deny that.
Detroit and Montreal have also made one-year offers to Jagr. Shero said he believes the Penguins’ offer is competitive.

Re: Penguins want Jagr back?!
Some others have got the pointI'll be a bit peeved if the difference between Jagr signing with us and someone else is due to the Pens not wanting to spend over $1.3-2million on him. For example, if Detroit gets him for $3 million, that's going to be pretty annoying considering there isn't a better FA out there who is worth $2.5 million, so why not give it to Jagr, even if it's a bit higher than the Pens would like?

Re: Penguins want Jagr back?!
That statement right there is like when Michael brought Frank Pentangeli's brother over from Sicily. I love the subtle intimidation of it.Shero said he is hoping that Jagr has “meant what he’s said by wanting to do right by Mario (Lemieux).”

Re: Penguins want Jagr back?!
Penguins should tell them that they want Jagr calling Mario Lemieux to announce his decision! That would only be fair. Because of the legacy factor I also think Lemieux should place one more call to Jagr and remind him of the legacy factor etc.
I think both Lemieux and Jagr owe this to the fans!
One call can make a huge difference!
