Jaromir Jagr is still playing hockey at the age of 47 and although he's not in the NHL anymore, it's still crazy that he's playing professional hockey anywhere at almost 50-years-old.

Jagr has been playing for Kladno ever since returning home after a short stint with the Calgary Flames in the 2017/18 season and in his most recent game, he found the back of the net for the first time since returning home.

What makes the goal even better is that Tomas Plekanec was the player who assisted on it.

Jaromir Jagr of @RytiriKladno scored today first goal after his homecoming from NHL. At the age of 47 he scored a power play goal in his 4th game for his Kladno (4 points in 4 games - 1+3). Assisted by Tomas Plekanec. Photo by @BarboraReichova @DenikSport pic.twitter.com/t3TUwfluVt

It's great to see Jagr still scoring goals and playing the game he (and we) all love at the age of 47. Hopefully the scoring touch continues and he doesn't decide to call it quits anytime soon.
