Jaromir Jagr Missed Penguins' Stanley Cup Reunion Because He's Still Playing

The Pittsburgh Penguins held a reunion Saturday night to celebrate the 25th anniversary of their 1991-92 Stanley Cup championship team.

While nearly everyone from that squad was in attendance, Jaromir Jagr was not—because he is still an active player in the NHL...25 years later.

Jagr, the fifth overall pick in the 1990 draft, made his debut with the Penguins when he was 18 years old. In his first two seasons in the league, the young star helped lead his team to back-to-back Stanley Cup titles. That was just the beginning of his storied career, one that is still going to this day.
