Jaromir Jagr was drafted in 1990 and is still playing in the NHL

[Stack Money]

Jagr my GOAT:kobesalute:

I wish he'd go to a serious contender.

Like the Kings

The goaltending was also incredibly atrocious back then while it's at an all time high level now, which is why they're trying to make as many advantages possible to create more goals during the season. Players will never catch his point total because the game will never be the same as it was back then, there's a reason it's hard for players to get even 100 points these days and it's not the lack of talent.

Bolded is why its actually easier to score today the rules help players on offense while back then it was harder to score and the game was much more smash mouth, defenders can't hit like Scott Stevens now but Gretzky was still beastin back then even wit the tougher rules and style of play. If he was playin in today's league he'd have even more points goaltendin ain't the reason for his numbers he was goin up against the greatest Goalies ever like Roy and Brodeur, and other greats like Lemieux and Messier were playin back then too and didn't have anywhere near the amount of points as Gretzky he was just on another level from other players past and present.

Jaromir Jagr joins Wayne Gretzky & Gordie Howe as the only players in NHL history to score 750 goals

 

[Myrical Lyfe]

The scary thing is, he has gotten bigger, better and faster as he's aged.

 

[MikelArteta]

He's slower, but when he has the puck he doesn't give it up, his hand eye and awareness is off the chart. 99.9 percent of players lose that as they age

The scary thing is, he has gotten bigger, better and faster as he's aged.

This guy might legit never retire. Hope he gets some playoff goals this year

He's not on PEDs, he's slow as shyt. I don't know why that guy said he's faster, he's just literally smarter than everyone else that's playing. He's been playing for 26 years now breh.

 

[Brosef]

Jagr is slow as shyt now but still can see the next play before it happens. Like playing chess with the kids out there.

Cut the PED talk, he's been known his whole life to be one of the hardest working guys in the gym
