NHL Legend spotted practicing with the Pittsburgh Penguins
Sunday February 18th is going to be a special day for one former NHLer. Jaromir Jagr has captivated more than just a generation and his NHL career spanned over 25 years. Beginning at age 18 and ending when he was 45.
Sunday Jagr will be honoured in the City of Pittsburgh when the city celebrates Jaromir Jagr Day.
As part of the celebration Jagr made his return to the Penguins and today appeared at Penguins' practice.
Jagr's practicing with the Penguins today 🫡
Even at 52-years-old Jagr continues to play professional hockey at home in the Czech Republic. Jagr will be a first ballot Hall of Famer once he officially retires, but it's great to see him begin to get some of the recognition he deserves.
Jagr quickly showed off that he still has what it takes by sniping a beautiful goal against Alex Nedeljkovic. If Jagr truly wanted this physical specimen likely could still lace them up for an NHL team.
