Gagne is one sneeze away from being a vegetable and I like Richards playmaking ability but he's already 31.

So sign him to an 8-year deal, and he'll be Jagr's age when it's over.

Rome · July 01, 2011, 08:11:02 PM

They don't have room for Richards.

SunMo · July 01, 2011, 08:19:30 PM

yes they do actually

SunMo · July 01, 2011, 08:22:14 PM

there's another big move coming sometime. they didn't trade versteeg so they can leave a top 9 forward position weak.

the talbot move is a good move, he's a fourth liner who checks hard and gets under the other team's skin.

jagr may be good or he may be awful, you can't call it before you watch them play.

they could be done and i'm still happy that they got rid of the two locker room cancers.

They can make room...I'd rather they not.

Richards wants big money. How can they afford that? Moreover why would they want him? He's totally wrong for them.

jagr is more wrong for them than carter and richards combined and they traded both of them for him

getting b richards wouldnt even be a second thought for this team right now in terms of how right or wrong he is for them

BigEd76 · July 01, 2011, 11:01:23 PM

lots of Twitter buzz that Gagne is back

This was my argument to my dad last night when we talked about it. He said he loved it, but I said they replaced 2 YOUNG locker room cancers for an old washed up one.

Maybe it's just me but the last thing I'm worried about with Jagr is him being a locker room cancer. He's 39, it'll be his first year on the team, and he hasn't played stateside in the past 3 years. My point is with Richards and Carter their locker room issues were intertwined with the rest of the team because they were raised from the ground up, Jagr is just some washed up player whose role is a lot less than either Richards or Carter's was. Even if his attitude is an issue it's only a one year deal.

And for igy's sake I'd just like to reiterate I'm not for or against the move, Jagr is Zherdev to me.
