Who are you imagining on pp2?
Pp1:
Gaudreau-monahan-tkachuk
Versteeg-brodie (personally hate this but glen has a hard on for it)
Pp2:
Bennett-backlund-jagr
Hamilton-gio
Any way you slice it I think It's difficult to justify putting in Frolik or Ferland ahead of Bennett.

47 points on a pretty bad Florida team. Huge win if he puts up 35-40 for us on 2nd/3rd line minutes. Given his past three seasons combined there's a chance we could see even more.
This is one of the game's all time greats. He's not going to fall off a cliff all of a sudden when his best skill is puck control
This would be my hope as well however..if they don't want to split Gaudreau and Monahan...I would be fine with a Tkachuk/Bennett/Jagr line...

No. It'll be on the third line with Bennett most likely. Ferland is gonna be the top line RWer for the first little bit. Don't think Jagr has the legs for top line duty anyway

Big Jagr fan. This makes the child in me quite giddy. Not too sure how he'll fit on the team, but I look forward to the travelling Jagrs making a habit of going to Flames games. (I read somewhere a few of them were from Calgary). Was looking forward to Jankowski making a small splash this year, and this sounds like it could very well be his spot that is taken, but I'll take a wait and see approach and try to temper my disappointment on that end. Go Jags!

Enjoy him. Jagr is a quote machine and a terrific locker room guy. Really enjoyed his time with the Devils and his bromance with Zubrus and Zajac was hysterical. Here is a great read: http://www.nj.com/devils/index.ssf/...es_after_scoring_twice_in_devils_3-0_win.html
The one thing about Jagr though is he likes consistent linemates but at this stage of his career, he's sort of a niche player. Good thing for the Flames is they have players who can play like him (the Triple M line), Bennett, and I wouldn't be surprised if he meshes with Gaudreau-Monahan like he did with Huberdeau-Barkov.

I cannot wait to see Jagr on the ice with a Flames jersey... going to be so weird and cool at the same time!
