Jaromir Jagr didn't know why Shaq was in Newark: 'This guy played here?'

The New Jersey Devils played gracious host to Shaquille O'Neal Saturday as he drove the Zamboni and dropped the puck at center ice. One person who wasn't so in tune with the special guest was Jaromir Jagr.

Well, he definitely wasn't Alexei Ponikarovsky, and if he did play in the league, you most likely would have had to play against him. Shaq is a Newark, New Jersey native and apparently it just made sense to game operations.
