Jagr accepts front-office position in the NHL
Former NHL legend Jaromir Jagr announced a few weeks ago that he is officially retiring from playing hockey.
While he may have played his last game, it looks like he is returning to the Penguins but as part of their front-office. The Penguins have yet to disclose what his role will be but he will be part of management next season.
A new report from Rob Rossi of The Athletic is indicating that the Pittsburgh Penguins are expected to hire Jaromir Jagr!
Since Jagr lives in Europe, he will likely have a part in the organization that deals with scouting players overseas.
