Jagr leaning toward Rangers return

Posted: Wednesday May 07, 2008 05:01AM ET

Jaromir Jagr walked into his future on Tuesday and sounded a little more encouraging about returning to New York. "First, I am going to talk to the Rangers," said Jagr, an unrestricted free agent. "That's No. 1 option for me. I don't like to change. I feel very comfortable here, with all the people around this organization who are nice to me. They give me a chance to show everybody I still can play hockey."

It's Hot!

Rank: 7

It's Not!

What a coincidence...Just like Huet. He is going to talk to his own team first. Imagine that.

What? Did Jagr figure out that Siberia is cold? Did he discover that moat people who go to Siberia never return? Let's see: New York....Siberia; New York...Siberia......

Trivia fact- *What Team has lost to Team Canada more than any other...Answer- USA.

Report Offensive Comment

Well PopKing...Siberia does have the biggest lake in the world. Lake Baikal. That's something to ponder.

Report Offensive Comment

I hear the lake is so big because it's overflowing due to all of the disidents lying at te bottom from the Soviet era.

Report Offensive Comment

Jags has something to prove.....we'll welcome him back with open arms.

Report Offensive Comment

Jagr is just warming up to the press. I think he'll go to the team that gives him the $$$. If the Rangers are smart and are serious about rebuilding it'll be about him short-term and not Hossa who wants something like 9million a season.

IDK about the beer. USA has tons of really good micro-breweries. @ 6 dollars a 30-rack, PBRL got me through college so I respect that.

i do like your beer. but then again, i think its just because i love beer. the same could go for the babes comment i guess...

Report Offensive Comment

curious...what is PBRL, OtherOne? I've heard of PBR, is there a beer out there I've been missing out on?

Report Offensive Comment

I knew if I went through enough of these, I'd strike beer.
Ommagang (sp?)
Brewed in Cooperstown NY. A belgian type... best beer I've ever had in my life. Higher alcohol content and it has a cork for goodness sake. You can't go wrong with an 18.5 oz. bottle of higher alcohol beer with a cork that tastes as good as the real Belgians!

sorry...

Report Offensive Comment

Jagr's gotta do more than float during the regular season, though.

Report Offensive Comment

A lot of these guys do that. I think I'd rather have him float through the first half than sit out the first half. At least you get something for your buck

Report Offensive Comment

Baund-ed...Lake Baikal is the DEEPEST lake in the world. The LARGEST lake is the Caspian Sea. FYI
