In his announcement, he expressed his enthusiasm for the upcoming season with Rytiri Kladno, a team in the Extraliga, marking his 35th professional season in the sport. He highlighted his eagerness and anticipation for the new season, sentiments that haven't wavered even after 35 years.
He also hinted at a special pre-match program prepared in collaboration with @kauflandcesko, featuring a performance by Olga Lounová. He shared:
"Hi ⭐️. Another hockey season has begun. Now I read that I played for Kladno in the extra league for the first time 35 years ago. It's been a while. But the nervousness, the anticipation before the start... It's still the same. At the ČEZ stadium, we play for the first time tomorrow against the strong Pardubice.
I'm looking forward to hockey and the pre-match program that @kauflandcesko and I have prepared. Among other things, Olga Lounová will perform before the match. She has a nice song about being an eternal optimist. I think we all need a bit of optimism for the season. I believe it will be better than the previous one. And what about you? How are you looking forward to hockey?"
At 51, Jagr is not just a seasoned veteran but a living legend in the hockey world. Although he left the NHL back in 2018, after a staggering 1733 games, his spirit for the game remains undiminished.
While his speed might not match his younger self, his prowess and leadership are as potent as ever. Over the past six seasons post his NHL stint, he has continued to dazzle fans with his remarkable performance on the ice.
Could this legend be contemplating a future role as a coach in the NHL? Only time will tell.
