Panthers GM believes deal with Jagr will be worked out soon
by from on (#1BVYE)
The Florida Panthers and Jaromir Jagr appear as though they'll quickly whip up a contract for another season.
Panthers general manager Dale Tallon said Tuesday he believes a deal, which will take their leading scorer into age 45, will be worked out soon, George Richards of the Miami Herald reports.
Jagr confirmed immediately after Florida's Game 6 loss to the New York Islanders that he intends to play next season.
Last year, and a few months after Jagr was acquired in-season, the two sides brokered a one-year extension within days after the regular season ended.
