Jaromir Jagr doesn't want to be traded before the March 5 deadline. "I wasn't even thinking about it," Jagr said Monday. "It's the last thing in my mind to go anywhere, but I don't have any control in that. I don't have a no-trade clause in my contract. I guess I'm the only one." He is also hoping to get New Jersey into the playoffs. The veteran and future Hall of Famer leads the Devils with 17 goals and 49 points in 59 games. Jagr is eligible for unrestricted free agency after this season.
