The Penguins will raise two-time Stanley Cup Champion Jaromir Jagr’s no. 68 jersey to the rafters at PPG Paints Arena on February 18 versus the Los Angeles Kings as part of a pre-game celebration.
As part of the ‘Celebrate 68’ festivities, all fans in attendance that night will receive a replica Jagr No. 68 banner. In addition, a commemorative Jagr bobblehead has been added as a giveaway to all fans in attendance on Thursday, March 14 versus the San Jose Sharks.

I feel like it's not really late or overdue…
The beast of a machine just kept playing well into his 40s so they couldn't retire his number 😂. Or is that not a rule? Idk
❤
We need a photo that night of 66, 68, 71, 87, 58 all together. All their numbers will be up one day. Too bad fleury can’t be there as well.
Not a penguins fan, but Jagr is one of the greatest ever. A true legend of the game.
Legend. 🫡
About time!
this has made my day. Jags deserves all this and more
In a game against the Kings. Wow, they found an opponent he never played for. Impressive. 😉
I didnt know he still played in the Penguins
Long overdue. Love this guy. One of my favorite all time players. Only wish he could have retired in a Penguins uniform. Can't wait for this night ❤
Great news. Bring the tissues that night. Won't be a dry eye in the building.
I've never seen something more overdue than this … Congrats Jagr
And the best part is he is still playing…
congratulations Jagr 🥳

That fact that he almost signed with the Pens this season is remarkable, he could probably still outplay a bunch of NHLers today at his age
I'm still hoping that when he retires from the game completely, Jagr will sign a one-day contract with the Pens and officially retire with them.
Well deserved, the 2nd GOAT of Pittsburgh behind Mario during the 90’s
About time
