"I would play for the minimum salary. I would play for $350,000 just for him because I owe him my hockey life. I want to pay him back because he has made me what I am...besides my parents."

Last I checked one of our wingers is out up to a month...

yeah, I’d play for 350K, too…even though it’s a measly hundreds of thousands of dollars more than I’ll ever make in a year in my life….I’d make that sacrifice for Mario, too…

having a sudden attack of bitterness, and I’m not usually one to complain about athlete salaries

I think it’s safe to say you and I would willingly split that as two fourth line forwards. We might not go end to end on a single shift, but at least we took the “discount” to help out Mario.

I might seriously cry tears of joy.

I’d dust off the old 6-8 from the closet and rock it like it’s 1995

You’d have to get a wig until the mullet comes back in.

Let's go Pens!

Sadly I was pretty close to a mullet up until last week…

As if we all needed another reason to wish the price of crude oil keeps on dropping..

Hell, I’d take it. I still have my hat from the 90’s. I only wish I had kept my t-shirt with his mullet head on it.

If I'm reading this right

Jagr still looks to have it… and looks like the best player on his team by far.

This reminds me

It’s finally okay to like Jagr again. It killed me inside to boo him.

Let's go Pens!
