“Boba Tea Meet Cute” 05/22/23 This is not a drill: Jaromir Jagr was in town over the weekend. As in, 68 was INSIDE Pittsburgh city limits - physically. Could the Czech-born player’s visit to the 4-1-2 signal an impending jersey retirement, or even something more? Amid incessant speculation, among fans and the press about the Penguins’ ongoing search for a new GM, Jagr’s sudden in-the-flesh appearance in Allegheny County was nothing short of EXTREMELY refreshing. It’s fun news that transcends the playoffs, the upcoming draft, and it makes even the most stolid, pragmatic armchair pundit scratch their head: “COULD Jaromir Jagr be taking meetings about anything more than just a jersey retirement? An elevated role in player development, or something bigger? Finally, Jordan and Jeff - but apparently, mostly just Jordan - are joined today, ever so briefly, by Penguins front office royalty. We hope you enjoy that. Thank you for listening!! Follow the podcast on Twitter: @penspod // Jeff: @penspod_JT //Jordan: @fidgenewton The offseason marcheth onward, and so shall we!! LETS GO PENS!!
