Penguins Player Have Amazing Jaromir Jagr Tribute On Jersey-Retirement Night

On Sunday, the Pittsburgh Penguins honored Jaromir Jagr with a wonderful tribute as they began play by retiring his No. 68.

In fact, the 52-year-old Jagr warmed up on the ice with current Penguins players before their matchup with the Kings. The players paid homage of their own: they all skated onto the ice donning Jagr jerseys and a ludicrous pair of wigs that were a parody of the iconic mullet that Jagr had in the 1990s.

Anyone who watched hockey in the 1990s could not fail to notice Jagr’s trademark—the mullets. He was also well-known for a particular goal celebration, which some players still imitate.

Jagr played for the Penguins for 11 seasons, accumulating 1,079 points and 439 goals in that time. He deserves the attention he got on Sunday.
