Jaromir Jagr - need a hero

Jaromir Jagr was the leader of the New York Rangers , a hockey club in the National Hockey League, since 2005. He became Captain in 2006. Scoring over fifty goals in 05-06 he brought the Rangers, picked to be last in the league, into the playoffs.

He started his career with the Pittsburgh Penguins and is a sure bet Hall of Famer.

Jaromir Jagr wears the number 68 in remembrance of the 68 Invasion by the Soviets of the Czech Republic, and in memory of his Grandfather.

He has now left the Rangers and is playing for a team in the Russian league. He hopes to return to the Czech Republic in two to three years to play for his hometown team in a rink built by his Father.

I will always remember Jagr wearing Black and Gold and playing with Mario! I remember when he first came to Pitts and couldn't speak English. What an amazing player....Awesome and always a Penguin!

That picture at 4:30 is incredible. Signed by Lundqvist and Jagr? Ridiculous.

[AgravaineNYR]

Yea isn't it? I don't own that picture unfortunately I wish I did though. The one at 1:14 or 1:15 is Jagr scoring against the Florida anthers. I was in the last row of the 400's when I took that one. And that one I do have signed by him.
