Basically saying wings would offer around 3 mil. And his agent doesn't rule out a signing in Russia.

Is this what james neal will get?

LOL, Rossi retweeted the fake Letang tweet. Rossi's such a fool, and this is his typical reporting where he's "on the story" and trying to rile the Pens' fan base into a frenzy. He's falling completely into whatever Jagr's agent is trying to do.

If Nealer hits 20G for the fourth straight year in 11-12, look for him to get around 4M as an RFA next summer.

If Jagr is serious about coming back to the NHL, I can't see how he would turn down Mario, assuming the Pens aren't offering him Mike Rupp money...

LeBrun...

Wings have offered more money than Penguins at this point. That can change in one phone call from Mario. But that's where it stands now.

All indications thus far point to the Penguins offering Jagr "Rupp-money" :scared:

I would certainly hope he hits 20 G.

I'm hoping for more than 2 in 2 months.

I think it would only solidify in my mind, that when he doesn't sign for league minimum, that he's in it for the dollars.

Offering him $1 mil is an insult. They gave Satan $3.5 mil. Split the difference with the Wings offer and make it $2 million.

How does Robert Lang know Mario Lemieux is trying to contact Jagr?

Does this mean Lemieux has called Robert Lang in an effort to get in contact with Jagr?

This implies that anyone currently reporting these rumors really knows anything.

We could afford it then because we missed out on Hossa. We can't afford it now.

Having 8M to play with, we can easily afford to give Jags 2.5, even 3M. We could still keep TK and fill the roster out with >1M guys from WB or the open market.

Well, if Mario does not call and Shero offers 1 million, then I would agree that would basicly tell Jagr that the Pens could care less.

I'm scratching my head over this one. The worlds are a sparse talent tournament that relatively no one cares about. Not sure that performance is a solid indication that he can still play.

Yeah, I don't think Shero's the type of guy that would waste his or Jagr's time by offering him a mil.
