3 years is a long time. And in that time, Jagr has gone 123 points, 96 points, 71 points.
And while there are some old geezers still playing in the league, playing at a high quality over 38 IS less common. Jagr is an all-world talent and stands a good chance to contribute at a high level, but we'll never know now.
3 years is asking a lot, especially if the GM doesn't feel he'll be worth the contract.
BS, 3 years is still a long time. Obviously long enough that NO TEAM in the NHL felt it was worth it. Are all 30 NHL GM's stupid?
