Revisiting the Penguins Jaromir Jagr trade more than 20 years later

Locked On Penguins - Daily Podcast On The Pittsburgh Penguins

Twenty-three years ago the Penguins traded Jaromir Jagr to the Washington Capitals for a whole lotta nothing. Patrick and Hunter talk about the trade, what it meant to the franchise at the time, and how Jagr’s trade to Washington actually helped usher in some of the most successful hockey for both franchises. Next, now that the draft is behind us, they keep the so-called bad vibes going and look back at some absolute whiffs in the Penguins' draft history, especially in the Crosby era. Finally, RC Cola is out, Coca-Cola is in at PPG Paints Arena, a long-time member of the Penguins staff retires, and the first player from the 2024 draft class signs his ELC.
