Much more was expected. Ah well, the money can now be used for better players (Mike Green, Alex Ovechkin, etc.) Jagr had some great moments while here, including a 7 point night vs. Florida, but in his 2 plus years here, the Caps made it to the playoffs only once, and got knocked out in round 1 by Tampa.
