Jaromir Jagr retires after the 24/25 season his agent claims

[SoundAndFury]

The most bizarre thing about this is that Jagr plays for his own team yet is still represented by an agent.

Im guessing thats for sponsorships and other income opportunities more than playing contracts?

For the Pens number retirement, he did a signing at a local dump sports card shop. I was shocked at how rinky dink it was, al through appreciated the opportunity to meet him, but im sure they gave him $x to show up and it all goes through his agent.

My understanding is that he is retiring from the Extraliga so he can go back to the NHL next season.

 

[PolishPrince21]

Nah he will never retire , he will die in his 100s on the ice trying for another cup

“In discussions with the LA Galaxy” incoming.

I belive it when i see it.

Jagr is like the stones with thier "last tour ever". My mother went to their "last tour" in the 80's..

 

[spiny norman]

I wouldn't at all be surprised if the HHOF waives the 3 year waiting period for Jagr.

He was a veteran in the NHL 20 years ago. Think about that … lol

Father Time remains undefeated, but I think Jagr fought him to a draw.

Quitter

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.

I saw him at the 2010 Winter Olympics (against Slovakia; he had a goal and assist), and figured that was going to be both his last time playing in North America, and one of his final seasons. Was a nice way to see him off, so I thought.

Funny thing too is that he led 2 NHL teams in scoring after that.

And only didn't lead 4 NHL teams in scoring because he was traded mid-seasons.

In 2012-13 he scored 37 pts and was traded from Dallas to Boston who had lead scorers of 33 pts (Benn) and 36 pts (Marchand) respectively.

Similarly, in 2014-15 he scored 47 pts, which would have ranked 1st on the Devils (Henrique, 43 pts), but he got traded to the Panthers where Jagr would have finished 2nd in scoring (Huberdeau, 55 pts).

Also side notes - I do not miss the mid 2010s where 50 pts in 82 games led teams in scoring LOL

 

[Coffee]

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

Why doesn’t he join one season with a NHL team and get it? It’s under PPG ffs

 

[CanadienShark]

I love Jagr. It'll be a sad day for hockey when the dude finally retires. He's like Genghis Khan - a legend that will live forever.

 

[Orfieus]

Heroes get remembered, but legends never die.

Remember that time the girl he slept with tried to blackmail him?

f***ing legend

 

[luiginb]

He's playing at a PPG in the Czech league, why would he retire?

 

[SEALBound]

Remember that time the girl he slept with tried to blackmail him?

f***ing legend

And it turned into an international meme challenge. Dude has led a charmed life.

[Speyer]

Jagr has finally retired. Cant wait for the reign of Robo-Jagr!

 

[SeanMoneyHands]

Why so soon? He hasn't even hit his prime yet.

 

[Bouboumaster]

I belive it when i see it.

Or think of it this way:

Jagr was born before the Canada - USSR Summit Series in 1972.

Jagr is playing pro. hockey in 2024-25.

He was a two-time Cup champion THIRTY years ago.
