John Scott is going. And now Jaromir Jagr will also travel to Nashville for the 2016 NHL All-Star Game next weekend.

That’s according to George Richards of the Miami Herald following the Florida Panthers’ 5-2 victory over the Tampa Bay Lightning on Saturday.

With their win Saturday, the Panthers lead the Atlantic Division by five points over Tampa Bay and Detroit.

The 43-year-old Jagr, who has 33 points in 45 games this season, was voted into the game as one of the division captains but did not want to attend the event -- read more about it from Saturday morning -- that includes three-on-three hockey.
