After nearly 20 years in the NHL, Jaromir Jagr has decided to leave the NHL to play for team Avangard Omsk in Russia. The move comes just a day after splitting from the New York Rangers.
In his career in the NHL Jagr has put up phenominal numbers, collecting 646 Goals, 953 Assists for 1599 Points in 1273 Games, better than a point a game over his NHL career, which has seen him play for 3 teams; Pittsburgh Penguins, Washington Capitals and the New York Rangers.
“It was the toughest decision in my life, hockeywise. … No question about it. I hate making changes,” Jagr told The Canadian Press.

Other action around the league saw a number of players change homes.
A day after the San Jose Sharks acquired Rob Blake on the blue line, they have acquired another top defenseman in a 4-player trade. The Sharks acquired Dan Boyle and Brad Lukowich from the Tampa Bay Lightning in exchange for defenseman Matt Carle, prospect Ty Wishart, a 2009 first-round pick and a 2010 fourth-round pick. The Sharks also acquired 2nd round Draft picks in 2009 and 2010 from the Buffalo Sabres in exchange for Craig Rivet and a 2010 7th round pick.
The Vancouver Canucks acquired a replacement forward for Markus Naslund today by acquiring Steve Bernier from the Buffalo Sabres in exchange for a 3rd round pick in the 2009 draft and a 2nd round pick in 2010.
The Pittsburgh Penguins showed their faith in their goalie today by locking up M.A. Fleury to a 7 year, $35 Million dollar deal.

NHL - Detroit Red Wings/Pittsburgh Penguins Box Score Wednesday June 4, 2008 - Yahoo! Sports
Just 5 minutes until puck drop in game 6 of the Stanley Cup Finals. The Detroit Red Wings are looking for the win that will give them the Cup. The Penguins trying to force a series deciding game 7.
Keys to the game:
- M.A. Fleury repeating his stellar performance that helped win game 6. If he can, the Penguins can make a game of this.
- Pittsburgh need to shut down the Red Wings top line. If Zetterberg and Datsyuk are free to skate on open ice they will do damage. The Penguins need to shut that line down.
- Evgeni Malkin. He was quiet in most games of this series, but got the assist on Sykoras game winner in game 6. If Malkin can get on a roll, he could be the difference maker.
Game on!

The return of Sidney Crosby. The skills of Evgeni Malkin. The wall that is marc-andre Fleury. If you ask the Pittsburgh Penguins what the secret to success has been this year, they will probably tell you that hard work, determination and a never say die attitude has been the recipe for success.
Todays win, a 4-2 victory over the Philadelphia Flyers, a possible first round opponent gives the Penguins home ice in the Playoffs.
“It’s huge. To win at home and win the division against a rival, I’ll bet everyone in here will say it’s our best win of the season, and Sunday could even top that,” defenseman Ryan Whitney said. “It’s exciting in here right now.”
- Yahoo! Sports
From team captain Sidney Crosby…
“We knew going in it was going to be an emotional game, an intense game with them needing to play desperate hockey and us wanting to play well here down the stretch, with the division in mind,” Crosby said. “For me personally, that’s probably the most intense game we’ve played since I got back here the second time.”
- Yahoo! Sports
That success blossomed today as the Pittsburgh Penguins clinched the Atlantic Division. It’s been 10 years since the Penguins last won their Division, and the team today is vastly different from that in 1998.
In 1998 the Penguins lost in the first round to the Montreal Canadiens 2 games to 4.
