Jagr Re-signs with Avangard Omsk (Updated)

Update, 1:30 p.m.:
Dmitry Chesnokov at Puck Daddy tweets that Jagr has not re-signed with Omsk yet...

"Omsk's GM said it was too early to talk about Jagr re-signing with Avangard, but the club would want to do it before the Worlds."

Original Post:
Laurie over at Beyond the Blueshirts says Sport-planet.ru is reporting that Jaromir Jagr has signed a new two year contract with Avangard Omsk of the KHL.

Citing “reliable sources” the article claims “Czech forward Jaromir Jagr has decided to remain with Avangard Omsk for two more seasons. The sum of the agreement was not disclosed, but it will most likely be less than under the previous contract.”

Laurie adds that the source is not very reliable and to caution until it’s confirmed by another source.

...if this report is true, it's too bad. As I said the other day I would have liked to have seen Jagr back in the NHL.
