After a wild NHL summer that's got the potential for another few moves, there's now one report surfacing that's incredibly hard to believe, but would be incredible if true.
A legend returns?
At age 51, Jaromir Jagr has shocked everyone in the hockey world as he continues to thrive overseas, but now it appears an NHL return could potentially be on the cards.
Despite not playing in the NHL since the 2018 season with Calgary, there's now been a report that he could be returning, with one particular Eastern Conference team interested.
A reunion with Pittsburgh
According to NHL News Updates, Kyle Dubas and the Penguins have been in contact with Jagr about a potential return, and with several sources confirming these conversations, there's a chance this could happen.

Ultimately, he could be coming back to simply retire as a member of the team he started his career with back in 1990, but if he does get back on the ice, it will be the story of the NHL season.
