Less than two months away from his 44th birthday, Jaromir Jagr is still tough as nails.
The Florida Panthers forward took a high stick to the face from Ottawa Senators forward Alex Chiasson and immediately hit the ice in a pool of blood and some obvious pain.
Warning: The following videos and photos contain some graphic material.
Jagr ultimately lost four teeth in the process.

He was a good sport about the whole thing, though.

After the game, Jagr had a little fun with it, too, as evidenced by this tweet.
