Jaromir Jagr – Bio Brief

Jaromír Jágr was born in Kladno, Czech Republic (formerly Czechoslovakia), to father Jaromír Jágr and mother, Anna Jagrova, on February 15, 1972. At a young age, Jaromir showed an incredible passion for hockey and, quite early on, he started playing for his country professionally when he was just 15 years old. Due to his extraordinary skills, it’s no surprise that he won his government’s approval to declare the NHL draft, which also made him the first Czechoslovak to do so.

NHL Career

In 1990, the Penguins selected him as their fifth overall pick. Proving that he was indeed an asset to the team, he helped the Penguins immensely by registering a total of 27 goals in the 1990/1991 season. He also helped his team win their first-ever Stanley Cup. This feat earned him the NHL All-Star title and the Penguins also named him to the same title in the 1991/1992 season. His performance even reached an admirable point in the 1994/95 season when he played the team’s attacking position to cover the absence of teammate, Mario Lemieux. Impressively, he continued to play the attacking position even after Mario’s return and also won the top scorer award from the 1997/98 season to the 2000/2001 season.

At the end of the 2007/08 season, Jaromir was a free agent and in the same season he signed with Avangard Omsk of the Russian Hockey Continental League. After playing with the Russian team for three seasons, he then signed a one-year contract with the Philadelphia Flyers. After his contract with the Flyers expired, he played for two other teams (Dallas Stars and Boston Bruins) between 2012 and 2013.

During the off-season in 2012, Jaromir Jagr later signed with the New Jersey Devils, but he was soon traded to the Florida Panthers in February 2015. In December 2016, Jagr recorded a high score of 1,888th for NHL Caretakers, which puts him in second place as the athlete with one of the highest points, just behind Wayne Gretzky. The Calgary Flames were the next team to sign him in October 2017, but just after three months, having played a total of 22 games, he was let go mainly due to recurring injuries. So he decided to return to his home country Czech Republic in 2018 where he has since joined HC Kladno, a team he currently owns.

Is he married? Girlfriend, Wife, Children

Jaromir Jagr has had his own share of beautiful women in the span of his life and career. Moreover, given his charming appearance, fame and fortune, most women would definitely want to date him. Iva Kubelkova was the girlfriend he had like back when he was still new to fame. Although the couple moved in together as a couple for three whole years, they ended up ending their relationship in 1996. Three years later in 1999, he met and started dating Nikol Lenertova. Sadly, just like her former relationship, this one also ended as the couple couldn’t make it to the altar. He then had a brief romantic fling with Lucie Borhyováin (2004) and Inna Puhajková (2006 ).

Jaromir Jagr was officially single and a single man for a long time after his previous relationships, but that changed in 2015 when he met former beauty queen Veronika Koprivová (Miss Czech pageant 2012). They would always be together, maybe, it’s the one who ends up at the altar.

So far, the ice hockey winger has no known children.
