Signing Jaromir Jagr Can Be a Low Risk, High Reward Move for the New York Rangers

Once upon a time, NHL legend Jaromir Jagr called Madison Square Garden home.

He was the captain of the New York Rangers from 2006 until 2008. One of the best years of his Hall of Fame career happened on Broadway, as he potted 54 goals with 69 helpers in 2005, resulting in an All-Star nod and the Ted Lindsay Award. He led the organization to three straight playoff appearances.

It’s been nearly a decade since Jagr wore a blue sweater. However, he will be an unrestricted free agent on July 1 — and now may be the time to return to the Rangers.
