Voracek played in 1,058 career NHL games mainly with the Philadelphia Flyers but also logged significant games with the Blue Jackets. He played in 11 games last season registering 1 goal and 6 points.
Voracek is 34 years old while Jagr is 51 and still kicking it in the Czech League. Jagr played in 1,733 NHL games scoring 1,921 total points in that time. He stopped playing NHL hockey in 2017-18 with the Calgary Flames and made the move to Czechia where he has been playing with Kladno for the past six seasons.
With Voracek moving behind the bench, it is a further testament to how skilled Jaromir Jagr is as a player and his everlasting endurance has solidified him as one of the greatest, if not the greatest, European hockey players ever.
