It was in 1984 that Jaromir Jagr first suited up as a professional hockey player for the club that is now known as Rytíu0159i Kladno. On Wednesday, the two-time Stanley Cup winner hinted that he was set to do so again at age 50.
“I know some of you won’t believe it but I’m really looking forward to the next season,” Jagr wrote on his Facebook page. “How much are you looking forward to it, (Kladno fans)?”
Jagr last appeared in the NHL in the 2017–18 season as a member of the Flames. He scored one goal with six assists in 22 games before joining Kladno in the Extraliga, the top professional league in the Czech Republic.
