Czech Republic's Klepis dons vintage Jagr jersey in practice

He's the highest-scoring player to come out of the Czech Republic, so why not try to mimic Jaromir Jagr?

On the team's day off Monday, the Czech Republic held a practice ahead of their final round-robin game of the World Championship against Switzerland.

To help lighten the mood and perhaps have some elite skill rub off on him, forward Jakub Klepis donned a Pittsburgh Penguins Jagr jersey.

Klepis has just one assist in two games, while the 43-year-old Jagr has four goals and six points in six games.
