We already know Jaromir Jagr loves philadelphia. He has made that very clear. The good news today is that the Flyers and Jagr's agent have had preliminary discussions on an extension. "I’ll be talking to [Flyers GM] Paul Holmgren again within a week probably," Svoboda told ESPN.com Wednesday. Jagr, who turns 40 on Feb. 15, signed a one-year, $3.3-million deal last summer. He’ll be an unrestricted free agent on July 1, but there’s obvious interest in staying in Philadelphia if both sides can come to agreement. "It’s a good situation for him there," said Svoboda.   Via ESPN.
