Good luck with that. By the time you hit page 254, you'll have another 200 pages to read.

Exactly. The only players to score more points per game in the regular season since 2008 than Semin are Malkin, Ovechkin, and Crosby. I'd love to sign Semin to play with Malkin and score 90 points per season against teams 2nd D pairings while Sid tears it up against their first pairings. I'm just sayin, sign Jagr to a 1 year deal and make an offer to a top UFA winger next season. It's going to be a better UFA market than this one, that's for sure. Leino at like 4M? Pass. Gagne at like 5M? Pass. VRBATA at like 4M???? (pass.)

Thanks. So the 3 hours I took off from my constant vigilance essentially saved me 3 hours...nice.

Semin is a lazy Russian, that quit on the Caps last play-offs and fights like a 3rd grade girl...what more do you need to know. Pass.

Gagne is not getting $5M
Then how will Florida, Colorado, Phoenix, Winnipeg, etc. get to the cap floor? Teams will HAVE to overpay for these guys since the floor went up so drastically.

I'd almost prefer a Lebron-style Decision show for Jagr, just because it presents the best chance for actually getting some kind of straight answer...unless:

Jagr: I've decided to take my talents....to take some more time to decide.

Some here need to calm down. Sure, it is reported he would make a decision on Wednesday, but if there are suddenly a few new teams coming with offers, should he not wait and first consider those offers?

Also people assuming RS have not talked to Svoboda, he might have, and gotten the info that the decision will have to wait, since there are more, new offers on the table? It would be pure stupidity to just ignore them, for Jagr, just because RS wanted an answer yesterday.

If RS don't already know the answer, it will not affect what he does tomorrow, he know he can't wait for Jagr. He will do the right thing.

They'd come back from commercial and Jagr would be missing.

Exactly. Who needs to tie up 6 million in a playoff quitter?

For a 250 page thread, we're remarkably calm....Aside from Lesky.

As he should be. There is no chance of throwing picks during Jagrwatch.
