50 years old.
But Jaromir Jagr is still playing.
And now he also sends a wonderful pass to all NHL clubs.
Jaromir Jagr is truly unique in ice hockey. He made his debut in the world’s best hockey league in the early 90’s and then it took all the way until the end of the 10’s before he left.
Still playing
For many years, Jagr was one of the world’s absolute best players, and not many have scored more points than matches than the legend. And even though he has reached the age of 50, he refuses to give up his hockey career.
After leaving the NHL five years ago, he returned home to the parent club Kladno, which he also owns. Last year he played for the club in the Czech top league, and once there he scored a total of 19 points in 43 games played during the winter. And maybe Jagr is still dreaming of a return to the NHL.
The pass to the NHL clubs
Right now the window is open for all clubs to recruit players who are free agents, and then Jagr took the opportunity to send a wonderful pass to all general managers in the league.
NHL GM’s – I’m also a free agent, once again. I am 189 centimeters tall, 120 kilos heavy, 50 years old, slow, but strong and with good hands. Can contribute with routine and would prefer to only play home matches. Call me anytime! ”He writes in a Tweet that has been widely circulated.
Jaromir Jagr also took the opportunity to pick up players, which was probably the purpose of the tweet from the beginning.
“Also… as the owner of a hockey club in the Czech Republic: I’m looking for a good back to recruit, no joke…”
