If they don't get Jagr OR his friends before 05-06, we're probably a top 3 pick in 2006 and 2007.
It's not Jagr that I have a problem with, it's the glorification of those teams and this myth that they were somehow a great thing for us as a fanbase. I think that whole era was a travesty. Just wasted years.

As opposed to the other 69 years we haven't won the cup? Jagr got us, pretty much single-handedly, the closest to a cup in the last 11 years.
