CALGARY – High atop a rarely touched shelf in the equipment manager’s room at the Scotiabank Saddledome sits a divine reminder of Jaromir Jagr’s time in Calgary. Wrapped with hockey tape, on which the words “do not throw out” were written by Mark DePasquale, is a 1.5 litre disposable bottle of water the Czech star entrusted to the Flames equipment guru. “This is his bottle of holy water he brought over,” said DePasquale, smiling, as he pulls down the relatively full plastic container with Czech labeling. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
