Rumor - Jaromir Jagr looking at returning to the NHL for one final season
Over the weekend rumors began that Kyle Dubas and the Pittsburgh Penguins were interested in making a major move. According to the rumor, that appears to have begun on Facebook, the Penguins GM wanted to sign Jaromir Jagr to a one-year deal, for him to finish his hockey career in the NHL.

While initially this seemed far fetched, a photo surfaced yesterday of Jagr training with Penguins defender Kris Letang. The photo shows the two in a gym with Jagr clearly pushing himself.
Maybe there is some truth to this rumor... I swear that looks like Jagr working out behind Letang?!?!?! #LetsGoPens
If Jagr attempts to make a return at 51-years-old it would be an incredible feat. It's not something that will likely happen, but the rumors are getting louder by the day.
