from Mike Heika of the Dallas Morning News (Sunday edition) via the Santa Barbara News Press,
I simply don’t have any great playoff memories of Jagr past 1992….
Maybe Jagr is more Scottie Pippen than Alex Rodriguez. Maybe he’s the sidekick who could never get it done on his own. Jagr floundered with the Penguins when Lemieux wasn’t there. He actually made the Washington Capitals a worse team. They are paying about $4 million a season for Jagr to not be on their team.
He’s all flash and no grind, and that’s a major sin in hockey.

Wow. Nice excerpt there. Never mind that the rest of the article after that explains how he’s been great for the Rangers, even without the points this year.
Plus, in the 3 seasons Lemiuex was out (97-00), Jagr had 102, 127, and 96 pts, hardly “floundering.”
