Jagr will be sentering the first line : Sykora - Jagr - Straka

He won't be taking face offs in the offensive and defensive zones though.

Which begs the question: WHY will he be playing C?

Isnt it obvious? Because of incredible back checking and defensive abilities. :)

I don't know why, but hokej.idnes.cz is predicting this lineup :

Jágr - Prospal - Straka
P. Sýkora - Výborný - Hlaváč
Dvořák - Čajánek - Ručinský
Hemský - Vašíček - Varaďa
Průcha, Vrbata

someone was saying jagr was playing center because it suits him better on international ice at this time in his career...he doesn't have to fly up the wing and try to beat guys to the outside, etc.
