Jaromir Jagr's been working on his Blue Steel.
The ageless Florida Panthers forward gave one of his many fans a treat Monday night, joining him for a selfie during the pregame warmup prior to the Panthers' game against the Toronto Maple Leafs at Air Canada Centre.
Mr. Blades - who has an excellent hockey name - later posted video of the memorable moment, as captured by TSN.
After the game, Jagr jokingly explained the photo.
Jagr: "I knew I would have a bad game so I took the picture." How many scrums end with reporters & player laughing? This was one.

The 44-year-old has a fun and somewhat controversial history when it comes to selfies, but there's no doubt this one falls into the "fun" category.
