Welcome to the last day of Jagrwatch; Start of Free agency
We've had some big time July 1st's. This one promises to be one
of the most interesting. Free agency begins in less than four
hours, and the end of Jagrwatch probably shortly thereafter.
There were reports surfacing last night that the Penguins
already prepared a "Welcome Home Jagr," design for their front
page. While they might have prepared something, it doesn't mean
anything really. The Penguins and Ray Shero have all kinds of
things happening, but the two biggest issues: 1. Can they get
Double J to sign? 2. Are they going to keep Tyler Kennedy, and
if they do will they overpay?  Tyler Kennedy would be a fool not
test the free agent waters. He could get a contract that makes
us all want to vomit. Shero has hinted that Kennedy wants to
stay in Pittsburgh, and that some contract parameters are in
place. We're saying Kennedy walks, but whatev. As for Double J?
Who knows. The saga of Jagrwatch will never be forgotten. If the
Penguins don't re-sign Tk
