The NHL's oldest player is about to hit the open market.
The Florida Panthers have decided to cut ties with Jaromir Jagr, player agent Petr Svoboda confirmed to TSN's Pierre LeBrun.
The 45-year-old winger had been with the Panthers since 2015, and played last season on a one-year, $4-million contract.
Jagr recently poked fun at lagging free-agent interest despite registering 16 goals and 30 assists in 82 games last season and 27 goals and 39 assists in 2015-16.
Clearly, he still has some game, and is looking to extend his already legendary career.
