    I cannot believe he is still playing!

    It took him 1538 games to get there and the former #5 (Espo) did it in 1282. That's more than three whole extra seasons. Not bitter or anything.

    Jagr also took 3 years off mid-career to play in the KHL that aren't counted in those stats. His peak, longevity, and productivity at the end of his career are all exceptional.

    He missed time to lockouts as well, and played during the dead puck era. If he had played a full career in the 80s he would have 2-300 more points.

    If Jagr hadn't returned to play in Europe for a few years before returning to the NHL, he could easily have finished up second in career points and third in goals.
    "My father would womanize, he would drink. He would make outrageous claims like he invented the question mark. Sometimes he would accuse chestnuts of being lazy. The sort of general malaise that only the genius possess and the insane lament. Our childhood was typical. Summers in Rangoon, luge lessons. In the spring we'd make meat helmets. When we were insolent we were placed in a burlap bag and beaten with reeds - pretty standard really."

    And he has a gold medal!

    From the unbelievable rookie class of 1990 already laden with HOF-ers and a many future HOF'ers, only 2 are still playing in the NHL. Whenever they decide to hang them up, Jagr & Brodeur will be headed to Toronto as first-ballot HOF'ers.

    I remember the early 90's when the 1990 OPC Premier Jagr was almost $100 raw!

    I just looked on ebay for 1990 Jagr stuff. Thought this was interesting. 2 sellers have the same card for sale with the same serial #. The card in question is the rarer 1990 Foodland Jagr PSA 10. One as part of a lot from Watkins Glen and the other by itself from a seller out in California. Something doesn't seem right. Maybe I should buy them both to see what happens.

    Yes. Very odd. Who is 9999rbush? He always has high end cards.

    +1.

    He would have had Mario playing by his side during the 1994 work stoppage, so that would have been good for quite a stat bump that year.

    Ive bought a few cards from him, always overpriced, always willing to come down to a reasonable price and cards are always as described and received quickly. No idea how he gets such high end stuff though.

    Thanks!

    Slow clap. Well played.

    So, has anyone yet put together a highlight reel of Jagr moments with a remake of the song "Moves Like Jagger" with some alternate lyrics?

    When I was 19, I would have chose Jäger. Chilled in the freezer.

    I remember this goal in the 1992 Cup. It is the most amazing modern era goal I've seen.

    Back in the '90's, rumor was that Jimmy Devellano passed up Jagr and took Keith Primeau instead because of prejudice he held against Czech players after a falling out w/ Klima.

    i'm #TEAMJAGR all the way! my favorite athlete and it's incredible how he's still playing after so many great players that came after him have retired and some cases voted into the HOF already. shows his work ethic and dedication to the game he loves.

    Jagr had to keep playing due to financial debts. I hope he is ok now because he is truly one of the greats .

    No lockout, shortened season two years ago and he never leaves the NHL for the KHL and Jagr could be pushing The Great One's all-time goal mark.
