Heroes get remembered, but legends never die.

 

[Fixed to Ruin]

But seriously the man is a legend

 

[Felidae]

He's only retiring from professional hockey.

Can't wait to find out which junior league prospect Jaromir Jagr joins.

 

[WarriorOfGandhi]

before he even hits his prime?

 

[MoneyManny]

He's just staging his great comeback for the 2030-2031 season.

 

[Mr Kot]

You're a meer Yogger

It means he is retiring from Kladno Knights. Then he comes to play a few seasons with Crosby before he calls it quits. And by "he" I mean Crosby.

I'll believe it when I see it with Jagr

Can a feathered mullet end up in the Hall of Fame? Asking for a friend.

 

[Rafafouille]

Have to wonder if he has a plan to keep Kladno going afterwards or if it's the end of the club.

> Jagr will be eligible to be enshrined in the Hockey Hall of Fame in 2028, as players must have been retired for three years before becoming eligible.

Hopefully the hhof waves that in this instance. Seems like an exceptional case.

So 2027 or 2028 for HHOF? I know its 3 years, but when does that trigger?

2028.

The rule is you must not have played in the previous three seasons.

 

[Prsut18]

Got an assist in the first game, now scored in the game 2 of the season..

 

[CanadaIsIrrelevant]

Only 79 points from being second player with 2000 points in the NHL.

4 lockouts and 3 seasons in Russia. All woulda shoulda coulda, but he'd be comfortably 2nd in points with 2000+ and Ovi would be chasing his goal record right now.

I saw Jagr play in person when he was working on his third scoring title and closing in on 700 NHL games.

The game was at Maple Leaf Gardens.

 

[ItWasJustified]

And then he makes a comeback in the spring of 2026.

 

[NVious]

He means after the 2124-25 season

1967?

 

[Aurinko]

Absolute legend. Other mortals quit @39 max.

 

[2CHAINZ]

I thought for sure he'd play till he's 68
