Im laughing too Edm. Even my offer was ridiculous. I realize that. But I took a shot.

I was going to take The Price Is Right approach and bid $1 hoping that you would all overbid.

We here at the Jets organization are glad to welcome back Jagr.
Its a joy for me to have him back on my team. He is ofcourse the 3 time Art Ross (2 under my management) and 1 time Hart champ in old WHL and we look forward to offensive potential he brings to our team.
