A rough translation of this story from iDNES.cz,
Q: Writer Larry Brooks wrote in NY Post that Rangers shouldnt start next season in Prague but is not sure you will play for the team. Do you know it?
A: I dont solve this. I dont mind it.You know, Nylander has left during summer. Straka was out for 15 games. That is not funny. I dont wanna complain, but with players, who Rangers bought in summer, i havent found clue, i didnt know how to play with them. Rangers invested big money into centers but i finished playing with boy from minors.
Q: You are captain, the biggest star on team. Rangers was Jagrs team. Is it stil Jagrs team?
A: I dont think so. Not now. If I dont play good, I am losing my position. But that is normal.
If you want to take a shot at more of the translation, feel free to post in the comments…

You guys are looking too hard to find something wrong with Jagr’s attitude.
These quotes are out of order, he praised Dubinsky and everything he’s said in this interview he’s said in the locker room with New York reporters, and Renney has also echoed what Jagr has said.
Jagr realizes that he just needs to play through it, and the addition of Straka will probably get his game back.

I agree, you have to read the whole article. Blueshirt Bulletin (http://www.blueshirtbulletin.com) has a good summary of it. Jagr’s more upset with himself than he is with the changes the team made.

Just based on that little tid-bit, that does NOT sound like a guy who is pleased with the situation in Ranger land.
Perhaps the translations are too literal, but Jags sounds pretty steamed about the changes that were made, and the current situation on the team.
Will be interesting to see this play out.
