Was working on this week's ago hoping that it would coincide with Jagr's return.

Sadly it's not. But here it is anyway.

The Travelling Jagrs also gave me the time to ask them a few questions.

Thanks everyone.

Great read my friend. Really enjoyed this.

I wasn’t alive to see it at the time, but being born in Chicago I heard about two guys from Pittsburgh taking the Cup against the Blackhawks in 1992 and in a 4-0 sweep no less. While many guys on the Penguins factored into the defeat, none were more prominent or talked about than Lemieux and Jagr. I detested them for years over that, and I wasn’t even alive to see it! Something that gave me a bit of satisfaction was that the Panthers took care of them in ‘96, but my anger towards the two superstars never faltered, not even after Chicago finally won in 2010.

But in an almost identical way, Jagr’s time with the Panthers changed all of that for me.

Lemieux, on the other hand
