Yeah. There was a lot of talk about Jagr feeling slighted when he supposedly tested the waters in Pittsburgh. Shero low-balled him, and Bylsma told him he would be on the 3rd line, so he'd be paid like a 3rd liner. I'm not sure either of those happened, but Shero and Bylsma are just dumb enough to do exactly that.
Again, I don't REALLY trust any of the information regarding that entire ******** saga. I think both sides were covering their ass by leaking their sides of the story to the media; Shero and Bylsma didn't want him, and knew he wouldn't sign for anything under X-amount, so they offered under that knowing he he'd turn it down. On the other hand, Jagr had no intentions of signing in Pittsburgh, but he had his camp float the idea to the masses to get a bidding war going. He knew he had something to fall back on when he signed with Philly; Shero offered too little, and Bylsma said he'd get no playing time on a scoring line.
In any event, the guy was my hockey idol along with Lemieux when I was little. I think he's a complete jackass off the ice, but I still hold out a glimmer of hope that he'll play one last season here before hanging them up for good in NA. It'll never happen, but it'd make me so happy.
