Jagr, who won two Stanley Cups with Pittsburgh, is the third player in team history to receive the honor
By Austin Nivison • 1 min readMore than 20 years after his final game with the franchise, Jaromir Jagr's iconic No. 68 will be retired by the Pittsburgh Penguins. On Friday, the Penguins announced Jagr's jersey will be lifted into the rafters on Feb. 18, 2024.
The Penguins will retire Jagr's number in a ceremony prior to their game against the Los Angeles Kings, making him just the third player in team history to receive the honor. It will be a celebration that is long overdue for one of the greatest players in franchise history.
Etched on the Cup. And now, raised to the rafters.

Pittsburgh drafted Jagr with the No. 5 overall pick in the 1990 NHL Draft, and he spent the first 11 seasons of his lengthy career with the team. In his first two years with the Penguins, he and Mario Lemieux led the team to back-to-back Stanley Cups. Over the course of those two playoff runs, Jagr notched 14 goals and 23 assists in 45 games played.
