Look out Mr. Hockey, here comes Mr. Coffee!
On the same day the Wall Street Journal reported that Jaromir Jagr had given up guzzling an astounding 10 cups of coffee per day for Lent, the Florida Panthers legendary forward showed no signs of decaffeinated sluggishness while sipping on his latest career success during a 3-2 loss to the Colorado Avalanche on Thursday.
With a secondary assist on Erik Gudbranson’s first-period goal, Jagr moved into a tie with Gordie Howe for third place on the NHL’s all-time scoring list with his 1,850th career point, needing 156 fewer games than Howe to reach that mark.
