I understand Jagr wanting to be moved if he is playing in a reduced role so he can at least be on a team with a chance to win in a reduced role, but I do hope he hasn't expected to be playing more because for the better part of the season he has not looked too good
He needs to take responsibility for his relatively poor play.
However, it's obviously been a real cluster**** of a season:
He started w/ Camm & Zajac... Zajac has sucked ass... and Camm was injured a few games in... so he played with Zajac & Zubrus (?), aka ZZzzzzz or ZZBottom... Camm came back, but has been in and out of the lineup (like most Devils' top 9 forwards)... briefly put Jagr & Henrique together, which showed some promise... Henrique hurt a couple times, then Jagr hurt... finally split up Jagr and Zajac shortly after Gomez was signed... Gomez and Jagr surprisingly clicked... Jagr takes head shot from Bortuzzo, then gets flu/mumps/?... Jagr returns and then he's put with Camm & Zubrus.
Despite his relatively poor play (compared to last season), missing time and not being full strength due to head shot & illnesses, and not much continuity/stability with linemates... he's leading the team in points and tied for second in goals.
Amazing stat: 2 PP points in last 3 months!
