You might as well agree to pay $20 million of the $44 Million remaining on his contract AFTER this season because this upcoming lockout is going to be UGLY.
Good deal for the Caps. Well, a good salvage to a bad deal, anyway.

It dont matter, the Maple Leafs will still beat the Capitals.

but they wont beat the BRUINS!

The trade of Jagr was in the works since April of last year. I heard about those rumors on a sports radio last spring, the same day as the 2003 NFL Draft. It's been in the works for months, but the final details needed to work. Put the signing of Jagr under another bad deal in Washington Sports.

I remember when the Caps got Jagr, I was in Ireland and it was on the news over there....I said then they will live to regret that deal..was mankie right? You betcha!
I'm just glad we got Anson Carter and not Cry Baby Lindros in exchange, which was also in the works.
Other rumours is that Philly want Kolzig and Gonchar, but Gonch separated his shoulder last night so that may nix that deal.
Time to rebuild with all these *ahem* superstars doing absolutely nothing for the team...as long as they keep Lang and Bonzai I'm fine with it.
By the way, did anyone see Jagr interviewed on Channel 4 news last night? He was almost in tears...did NOT want to go....not sure if he didn't want to go to NY or didn't want to leave Washington.

when i first read the topic of the thread i could have sworn it said "jaguar traded to the ny rangers" and i thought "why on earth would our jag to to new york?"
oops :p
-
Mankie...don't let this go to yer head but...I must commend you on your Caps opinions.
Whenever you post about them its spot on. Way better than 90% moronic posts on the Caps message board.
Rags get pounded by Ottawa 9-1 :eek: in Jagr debut!

IS everything all right in Caps land?
Report: Capitals owner, fan scuffle after loss
Associated Press
WASHINGTON -- Washington Capitals owner Ted Leonsis apologized to a fan who accused him of grabbing his neck and throwing him to the ground after a game.
Capitals spokesman Kurt Kehl confirmed Tuesday that Leonsis -- who is a vice chairman of America Online -- called Jason Hammer, a 20-year-old season-ticket holder who had taunted the owner.
"He's embarrassed. He regrets the incident happened," Kehl said. "He reached out to the fan."
Hammer, a Washington resident and season ticket-holder who sits across from Leonsis' luxury box, told The Washington Post that Leonsis placed his hands on his neck and tossed him down after the Capitals' home loss to Philadelphia on Sunday.
"The security guards came and broke it up, and pulled me away to the side," Hammer said. "But Ted was still trying to come at me again."
Other witnesses offered different versions to the Post.
Hammer told the Post he had led a derisive chant directed toward the owner during the game and held up a sign that read: "Caps Hockey; AOL Stock -- See a Pattern?"
Leonsis, 48, is vice chairman of America Online.
After the game, Hammer said he was walking past Leonsis with the sign held above his head when the owner approached him. Hammer then said Leonsis strangled him and security guards were needed to restrain the owner.
Team sources told the Post that Hammer had thrust the sign near Leonsis' face and heckled the owner, and Leonsis had shoved the fan aside.
One witness told the Post that Leonsis grabbed Hammer by the collar, drove him backward and pushed him down. Another witness said Leonsis and Hammer were yelling at each other before the owner approached the fan. The two then shoved each other, the witness said, before security guards restrained Leonsis.
Hammer, who told the newspaper Leonsis had called to apologize, said he did not intend to press charges.
"I think both he and I are going to drop it and continue on and have it be like that," he said.
Leonsis, 48, has a reputation as one of the more fan-friendly chief executives in professional sports. He often can be seen personally greeting spectators at Capitals home games and he answers fans' e-mails.
Sunday's game was the team's first at home since it traded star forward Jaromir Jagr to the New York Rangers. The Capitals have languished at the bottom of the NHL standings this season.

you dont look at the standings do you?? hehe.

Just saw the other post. Sorry Mank.
-
someone should pass a law barring anyone that ever worked for aol from owning any team in the washington dc area.
was bummed to see jagr come down here for so little, but i knew the pens couldn't pay him what he wanted. the caps followed a steal of a trade with at terrible contract. wait to go. but really, there won't be any penguins after this season, so the nhl can burn in hell for all i care.

Thanks, I love my Caps almost as much as my United.

At the last game some little Flyer kids that were bugging Slapshot on the concourse.
They were shouting at him, "The Capitals stink!". While Mom & Pop Flyer were standing proudly nearby.
I had to intervene. "Hey Kids! There is no real Santa! And you were all adopted!. Ask mommy where babies come from!"
Dad jumped in to herd the ankle-biters away.
The only satisfaction in the game.

Ah...Caps fans learning to be low-class from the lowest-class fans in all of sports: Filthadelphia fans. That was a heartwarming story.
Rangers are going to hold the Caps down and stomp their guts out tonight! :D

You mean just like they did with Ottowa the other night?
Looking at the rosters of the teams in the NHL...the Rangers are without a doubt the leagues biggest under-achievers, and have been for what???The last SIX seasons?

Thanks Dupek. Looks like you found a Valentines gift for my wife. Don't tell her. No way would she be reading a hockey thread. She thinks they're all a bunch of goons.

you guys are on quack.

A woman brought a very limp duck into a veterinary surgery. As she lay her pet on the table, the vet pulled out his stethoscope and listened to the bird's chest.
After a moment or two, the vet shook his head sadly and said, "I'm so sorry, Cuddles has passed away."
The distressed owner wailed, "Are you sure?
"Yes, I am sure. The duck is dead," he replied.
"How can you be so sure," she protested. "I mean, you haven't done any testing on him or anything. He might just be in a coma or something."
The vet rolled his eyes , turned around and left the room, and returned a few moments later with a black Labrador Retriever.
As the duck's owner looked on in amazement, the dog stood on his hind legs,put his front paws on the examination table and sniffed the duck from top tobottom. He then looked at the vet with sad eyes and shook his head.
The vet patted the dog and took it out, and returned a few moments later with a beautiful cat.
The cat jumped up on the table and also sniffed delicately at the bird. The cat sat back on its haunches, shook its head, meowed softly and strolled outof the room.
The vet looked at the woman and said, "I'm sorry, but as I said, this is most definitely, 100% certifiably, a dead duck."
Then the vet turned to his computer terminal, hit a few keys and produced abill which he handed to the woman.
The duck's owner, still in shock, took the bill.
"$150!", she cried, "$150 just to tell me my duck is dead?!!"
The vet shrugged. "I'm sorry. If you'd taken my word for it, the bill would have been $20, but what with the Lab Report and the Cat Scan ....."

... A duck walks into a feed store and asks,
"Got any duck feed?"
The clerk tells him, "No, we don't have a market for it so we don't carry it."
The duck says, "Okay," and leaves.
The next day, the duck again walks in to the feed store and asks, "Got any duck feed?" Again the clerk says no and the duck leaves.
Next day, the duck once again walks in, and asks, "Got any duck feed?" The clerk says, "I've told you twice, we don't have duck feed, we've never had duck feed and we never will have duck feed. If you ask me again, I'll nail your feet to the floor." The duck leaves.
The next day, the duck walks in and asks, "Got any nails?"
"No."
"Got any duck feed?"

A lady walks into the vets office with her pet duck, "I think my duck needs his his claws clipped he's scratching up the kitchen floor."
The vet takes the duck from her to take a look, "I'll have to put the duck down" "You have to put the duck down because he needs his claws clipped?" "No, he's heavy"

What's the big hype with the Darkness? My daughter seems to like them.
Were do you think Olie and Gonch will end up? My gut feeling is Olie off to Colorado.
Do you think Witter will go too? He's still fairly young so has a chance with the rebuilt Caps.
