The Pittsburgh Penguins are honoring former right winger Jaromir Jagr by retiring his jersey on February 18th. The Penguins announced the retirement of his No. 68 jersey with a special video in which Jagr said, “Pittsburgh, I'm coming home.”

Jagr had a storied career with the Penguins. After he was drafted fifth overall in 1990, he won back-to-back Stanley Cups with Pittsburgh in 1991 and 1992. Jaromir Jagr played for the Penguins from 1990-2001, when he was traded to the Washington Capitals because Pittsburgh could no longer afford him. He spent three years with the Capitals before going on to the New York Rangers for four years. He then played for the Philadelphia Flyers, Dallas Stars, Boston Bruins, New Jersey Devils, Florida Panthers and Calgary Flames in the NHL.
