Jaromir Jagr Great Quotations

Of course it's a big honor. The Rangers are an original six team. A lot of great players played hear -- Wayne Gretzky and Mark Messier -- a lot of great players. It's a big honor to me.

I am happy for it. Look at the great players here in the past 80 years.

He's a great guy. He's not only good coach, but I think he understands the life of hockey, how important is it off the ice, to even treat the players off the ice, not only on the ice. The chemistry on team, it's great. It's so far been fun for everybody here.

It's good for him and it's good for his confidence. I thought (Sweden) had the best lineup, the best individuals and Henrik. He was playing great but if he was just playing good, they'd win. For our team (in the playoffs), he has to play great.

It was great for the New York fans and all the hockey fans. If you're a player like Mark and play so many years in the NHL and did so much for hockey he truly deserved it. He brought the Cup here to New York in 1994 and the people love him, so he deserved it.
