Jagr to Detroit?

So it turns out that Jaromir Jagr wants to come back to the NHL and has expressed his interest in 4 teams, Detroit, Pittsburgh, NY Rangers, and Montreal. The interest includes having his agent contact these teams and Detroit GM Kenny Holland has verified the contact and has reported that the team is interested, especially for the right price.
Could make the Euro Triplets

I think this would be GREAT pick up for the Wings, especially if they can get him to come in for around 2 million next year. The Wings have Rafalski's money coming off the books, on top of the other moves they will do and there are sources that the salary cap could increase by nearly $5 million next season. This move would allow the Wings to add another top 6 scoring threat while having the money to bring in Wisniewski and another puck moving defensemen.

Possible 2011-12 Lines

Jagr - Datsyuk - Holmstrom
Franzen - Zetterberg - Cleary
Bertuzzi - Filppula - Mursak
Abdelkader - Helm - Eaves
