Jaromir Jagr is unquestionably a legend, but what he did on Friday is equally legendary.
The former NHL great forward said that his side Kladno will relocate it's final regular-season Czech Extraliga home game to Prague's larger O2 Arena, with ticket proceeds benefiting Ukrainian families seeking safety in the Czech Republic following Russia's invasion.
«I am very happy to confirm that everything was successful even in such a short time. Now our only wish is to sell out the O2 arena. Buy a ticket and help those Ukrainian families in the Czech Republic!» wrote Jagr on Facebook.
