If anyone can explain what in the world this is all about, be our guest:
-Xo! Xo! Xo!
Strange and somewhat disturbing.
It's obviously a Christmas greeting from Jagr and his KHL team, Avangard Omsk. Russian's love techno pop (even Christmassy techo pop), so I am told... XO XO XO!
If you want to see Jagr in another blatant ripoff of a Pens PR mix, check this out.... Jagr Agent 068...

Upon further review the text at the end is clearly Czech and NOT Russian...it roughly translates into "Merry Christmas and Happy New Year"
Santa has come, and he's bringing you goals and helping you win hockey games. And he wishes you merry Christmas and a happy new year. At least, I assume that was what the text at the end said.
Beyond that, I'm not sure there is an explanation. :P I am confused as to why the voiceover is in English.
How do you find this stuff?
I wish Jagr would come back and play for the Pens, we could use him right about now.
Always been a Jagr fan, I would take him back in a heartbeat.
I'm actually open to the Shanahan bit at this point. Something needs to change ASAP.
Dear Santa Jagr...all I want for Christmas is a wing who can score like that.
And maybe that fugly jersey with the feathers on the sleeves!!!
I'm open to moving Malkin back to forward on the powerplay. Y'know the powerplay that can't score and the leagues leading scorer who hasn't had a power play goal in what...20 games??? I'm I missing something on the math here? I'm I talkin' outta my @$$ here?
Powerplay needs a major shake-up. You've got a handful of defensemen that can shoot and distribute the puck, there is no need to have #71 back at the point. Split up Crosby and Malkin and see what happens. 0 for 21 is unacceptable when you the kind of talent this team (on paper) has.
Still want to see Pesonen get a legit audition on a scoring line in the NHL. He can't be any worse than Satan is right now...
I like what Bones wrote. Malkin needs to get off running the point on PP. He's too talented to sit at the top and hit howitzers all day. Also, I'd also like to see Pesonen get a legit shot. Something tells me he's a sleeper and would flourish if you put him with Malkin or Crosby for a few straight games. Finally, screw Hossa.
I wonder if it was hot enough in the Santa suit that he was dieing in it. Or if he was giving out some of that peanut butter. That music sounded like it was done by the guys who the Oh Yeah song from Farris Bueller's Day Off.
Don't get me wrong, I understand that to expect Pesonen to be a point-per-game guy by simply being paired with Crosby or Malkin is foolish. I guess I'm so fed up with watching Satan that almost anything else would seem like an upgrade at this point. I'd like to see what the kid can do before the year is out and he leaves for a team that will give him minutes in the big league.
