Jagr, you broke my fucking heart by snubbing not only your former team the Penguins, but also the Rangers by signing with the Flyers, now for every game in Madison Square Garden AND the Consol Energy Center, you shall be smited beyond your wildest nightmares. By that I mean your gonna get booed a lot.
@GOODPLAYA20 He signed with the flyers because they can give him the most ice time. He tried to go to the penguins but they couldn't guarantee him seeing the ice as much as the flyers. he didn't snub anyone. Read up on shit before you start booing one of the greatest players to play hockey.
Honestly, Kolzig looked like bricks were about to fall. He was stiffer than the goal posts. like wtf?!?! Kolzig looks like he just wanted to trip Jagr intead of playing the puck.
A shadow of himself as a Penguin - thats what New York fans, people, and teams will do to you - suck the life out of you - Pittsburgh was perfect for him and any other great player!
Wow. If that isn't blatant homerism, I don't know what is. Of course, he wasn't as fast. Back then, he was young and could fly. Let's not forget Jagr was never the fastest skater. That belonged to P. Bure. He was like a jet exploding. Jagr had speed but also amazing strength. The uncanny ability to ward off defenders.
Guess you forgot 2005-06 when he dominated and was robbed of MVP on what was called a last place team. Jagr will always be remembered a Pen but was very good here. Perspective!
He's not as fast as he used to be, but he's definitely able to kick on the afterburners on occasion. He still plays the puck along the boards really well.
i wish he didn't leave. He generated offense as well as he created it. Power plays, forget it. They scored countless times because of Jagr on the power play
I am from North Jersey so obviously i love the devils. I do however like the rangers also. they have and have had some great players in the past. I have respect for the stars like Brian Leetch, Mark Messier, Adam Graves, Mike Richter, Jagr, and Shanahan too. But I am a tried and true Devs fan and i'm not gonna apologize for it.
There were very questionable calls in games 2-5...The Pens are absolutely NOT a far better team.. They are a good young team, not Far better. It is a fact. if you want examples ill give em to you. Game 2- 2 horrible dives by Crosby, including one with less then 2 minutes left in a tied game. Game 4- 2 slew foots by Malkin that the league decided not to review even though it is considered the most dirty play in hockey. game 5 no call on a high stick that required drury about 15 stitches
none of what you say is a fact...its your opinion...you giving examples of why you think the flyers got jipped doesn't prove that the pens aren't a far better team...im sure there were calls on both sides that got missed...if i wanted, i could say the bruins should have won the series against teh canadiens b/c there were missed calls, but ive learned to accept a tough loss...i can't say for a fact the penguins are better but its my opinion outside of being a fan from either team.
Unfortunately you dont know because you didnt wanch the series, being that you are a Bruins fan. I am talking about the Rangers series by the way. I watched the series with two Pens fans that couldnt believe it either. It is true the the Pens have two of the top players in the game, but how could you say they are a far better team? Rangers are a deep team, and they have a better more proven goalie. Fleury is a fraud. He goes on one good run and people are comparing him to Roy.. What a joke.
oh ok...well i guess what i'll say about the rangers is that i actually did watch multiple games of that series, and i didnt notice anything too one-sided on the part of the officials. i do think the pens are a far better team b/c they have much more young talent than the rangers who have seemed to favor the "washed up veterans" closet the last decade...speed wins you cups now, not experience imo...except if your the wings that is, but even they have guys like datsyuk and franzen.
Well if you look at the box scores of the games you will notice that 2 of the games had the pens on the pp twice the amount of the rangers. I was also referring to timing of calls, and obvious missed calls. And of course your going to break out the "washed up veteran" thing when it comes to the Rangers.. so tell me besides shanny and jagr, who would you consider a washed up veteran? The Rangers are stocked with very good young talent, and have built a real future. Do some research
@pookdad jagr is the best european player of all time no doubt and one of my favorites of all time. sad to see him get old but to say hes the best of all time is overating him. in my opinion mario is the best of all time. had he been healthy he would have beaten gretzkys records. crosby is the best player in the league today..like him or not hes done it all and hes just getting started.
I respect and love Jagr but that wasn't speed.He had speed when he played for the Penguins(back then when he play he would give 100% on the ice and he was one of the best players in the NHL) but now he only plays for the money in New York.
sidney crosby is the biggest bitch that there ever was in hockey fuck him he cries all the time he can go die for all i care and plenty other ppl feel the same way
I totally agree. I did not say why he was not touched, not the real issue here is it? The real issue is 'all things being equal' the records would reflect a totally different story, nuff said.,out.
huh ??? You actually ever seen Gretzky play ?? Jagr is a fantastic player, no doubt, but better than Gretzky ??? He'll need another 1400 or so points to claim that title over the Great One....
yeah, and he would need to NEVER EVER be hit or even TOUCHED the way Gretzky was NEVER EVER TOUCHED!! Anyone would be the "Great One" if they could skate up and down all game long with no one going near him...Jagr took the hits so did Lemieux, Gretz was never touched, he would not have lasted more than 2 seasons if he was.
Gretzky was never touched because in the REAL NHL that he played in, the "toucher" would have been pummeled. You know, old time hockey ?? How many times was Yzerman or Messier run ?? Not many when you had Probert or Kocur, Leetch, Beukaboom, guys that simply WOULD NOT ALLOW IT ! "I hit their star player and I get my face smashed in.. hmmm.. no thanks !"
Consider this. Mario Lemieux, at age 34, broken down, never played hockey for over 3 years, bad back, recovered from cancer in the height of the clutch and grab dead puck era, scored 35 goals, 41 assists in 43 games in 2000-01, thats 66 goals, 79 assists, 145 points over 82 games, all things considered and absolutely raped Jagr during his best years. jagr had 149 in 82 games, lemieux had 161 in 70 games. And Gretzky was equal to or better than Mario.
he's good but...what speed lol?
