"The Rangers traded Anson Carter to Washington for Jaromir Jagr, who set multiple Rangers records and performed exceptionally over three seasons with the team."
"Jagr's $11 million salary post-lockout was effectively reduced to $4.94 million after a salary rollback, allowing the Rangers to acquire him at a bargain."
The New York Rangers will mark their 100th season, celebrating with a review of significant trades since the post-2004 lockout. One notable trade was acquiring Jaromir Jagr from Washington in January 2004, which greatly impacted the team post-lockout. Jagr's salary was effectively reduced due to a salary rollback, making it a favorable deal for the Rangers. He had an outstanding season in 2005-2006, scoring 54 goals and setting multiple records. Jagr played a significant role in Rangers' success for three seasons before leaving for the KHL.
