Jaromir Jagr retired from international play after the 2014 World Championships, but there's a chance he could once again don the red, blue, and white of the Czech Republic at the 2018 Olympics if he is unable to sign with an NHL team.
"There is a possibility (one of many) that I would stay in Kladno and prepare for the Olympics," he said on Czech TV according to their hockey reporter Darina Vymetalikova. However, Jagr told the reporter his priority is the NHL.
Though not getting signed by an NHL team would certainly break the hearts of many die-hard Jagr fans, using the Olympics as his swan song wouldn't be the worst ending to a Hall of Fame career either.
Jagr has totaled 123 points in 123 games for the Czech Republic in his international career.
