Jaromir Jagr Slips Up and Swears on Live NHL Broadcast
Former Pittsburgh Penguins legend Jaromir Jagr finally had his #68 jersey retired by the team on Sunday night. It likely would have been sooner but the 52-year-old is still playing professional hockey with the team he owns.
Jagr on the broadcast was full of laughs
Jagr was talking to the Penguins crew on Pittsburgh Sportsnet when he swore on air:
«He understood my language barrier, so we were so oh f***"
He followed up with:
"Sorry. I am more nervous than when I play!"
The Penguins broadcast crew were more than forgiving replying with:
"«The player came out of you right there"
Listen to the exchange here:
Jagr also revealed in 2011 why he signed with Philadelphia over Pittsburgh
During the off-season in 2011 when Jagr finally returned to the NHL after spending three seasons in the KHL, his final two choices to sign came down to reuniting in Pittsburgh or the rival Philadelphia Flyers. He ultimately chose the Flyers and had 54 points in 73 games.
"I was thinking about myself and wanted to show what I could still do. Sid had his line. Geno had his. But maybe it was a mistake."
It would have been quite the spectacle if the Penguins had him that year, or any year until he left the NHL for the last time in 2017-18.
