Jaromir Jagr's prolific NHL career appears to have come to an end with the 45-year-old returning home to the Czech Republic to finish the season.

As Luke Plunkett of Kotaku points out, the departure also means that there are no active players left in the league that appeared in NHL '94 - the EA Sports video game released in 1993.

Jagr leaves the NHL as the third-highest goalscorer in history (766) and third in games played (1,733).
