Not to take away from his amazing career and hockey brilliance. Please don't misinterpret. But Gretzky, Orr and Lemieux are at another level that even Jagr would acknowledge.
Best mullet of all time as well. Every team should have had him play on their team. Would teach all the new guys about being a pro and importance of conditioning. There is a funny story that Ryan Malone tells. Jags was on the Penguins when Ryan was a little kid. Ryan’s dad was involved with the Pens somehow. Then Jags was there when Ryan got drafted by the Pens and played a few years. Then Ryan plays like 12 years in the NHL and then retires and he said Jagr is still playing and said “ you retired already???”
I started skating at 5-6; but did start organize hockey till my 1st year as a peewee ( which is way late ) . I mimices my game after Can Neely; his north to south, sounds back checking, and being a snipper.. and feared with massive board rocking hits. Was, really appealing to attend a half year old skinny skinny kid like me. It's a blue I grew up in one of the poorest white ghettos in America. I want to sex all boys and when I was younger sometimes with dinner we had rolled up piece of bread on sugar. But God bless me in my neighborhood so many Barbie Doll came way before me and after his rookie year some 5,000 6,000 rinks were built in New England. In my time you got to make a size rank and we had a smaller break I'm supposed to feel like the little kids but it was always open all day and night; sometimes at midnight when they had "skinny hockey" or "guys pick up hockey"... I'll get out of school at 2:30 cuz I finished early doing my homework and run home jump on the bus and be at the rink by 3:003:15 the latest. No not small Rick would have a lot of other kids and bigger guys all the teens... Sometimes it would be 50 people in there everyone playing little 212-3 on three games so you always have to keep your head up! Dependency ebony guys are notoriously lazy so they wouldn't do a little less unless they were told to so sometimes it needs 4 inches of snow on top and choppy ice just like pond hockey in Canada. Even though I hate it and begged the Zamboni guys to do the little ring, they we're sitting in the office reading the paper saying to work next hour and then it was able to do it next hour they might do it once in awhile but it wasn't very much. But, it was blessing in disguise. Are you not dropped your poor on my criminals hand-me-downs from all the guys I play with my brother; summer when I was 11 years old my dad are a new job. Much more I got promoted went back to college and became an architect. So what you can spend some money on me. I was the first person to have a " stride board" , in Boston... years before mega hockey factories, likeBoston College and bu made a mandatory for the teams to do this stride baroard.. my dad, actually have it ordered it from Canada, I took like 6 weeks to come! But when it did take things I wasn't on the ice I was on the stride boy and then two or three times a day for half hours for an hour and then I got to the point where I would stick handle w a ball ball, well on my stride board... I got faster and stronger and during the winter months of course I would hit the ice once my ring closed I'd be on my roller blades and I'll make sure that I would shoot 2500 pucks per day ( where I grew up there was a tennis court that nobody used so the older kids stole a car and knocked down the metal post ! And made it a street hockey rink. I mean I played street hockey all the time but rollerblade hockey, is what I really loved. It was the only thing closest to actually being on the ice and playing. Sounds awesome fortunate to have a coach whose brother was a head coach of the New Jersey Devils and the Boston bruins so my third year in. I was already captain in the short years I advanced quickly. I ate slept sweat blood hockey I mean hockey with my religion! In school while I would think about is what I was going to do what train things how the cones I would set up I loved Denis Sevrade(probably spelled them wrong) , when he's with the Blackhawks in the '80. Them is one time a Montreal.into the 1990s. So I set up the cones and do the spinarama he used to do. But nothing nothing for the winter 1992.. well I already knew all about Jeremy roenick being from Boston in one of my older brothers was Jeremy about cinnamon when they were in high school at their academy. 1992 I saw a man turn into Superman on the ice, Jaromir Jagr ! Understood how far is the Chicago Blackhawks; he took the reins over Mario, greatest hockey player at that time, surpassing Wayne. I grew 7" in one year..so at 14 I was 6'4" but like 160 socking wet! Lol and I saw him I knew how big he was and how he dominated with physically, with his skills in his hands, boxing out people with his own body, three or four national hockey players around him and couldn't take the pack away from him, couldn't believe and I was seeing! One the ice a man going through a whole entire team and then back in during a goal in the Stanley cup finals. There's a 13th -14 teen year old kid poor Irish/American kid. Jagr was god me! Inspired me so much right will record his games my dad would record the mostly my dad would do most of the recording.lol and our closet go back and forth go back and forth and watch his legs watches always heads up always passing the park had man in the park never selfish even though he went through a whole team it was a necessity. In the way you just physically with style and grace with dominate the goalie it's like he just " gizzed" all over everybody! Lmao That's going to put that little bit out there if it were for him I never would have got drafted by New Jersey Devils. I'm not going to say my name because the injuries and others mistakes I made in my life I never played one game and NHL but I played a few quite in the AHL; hearing gaining weights I was skinny that was very fast in my style I was pretty much a clone of yagr... We do see in fact they took me so long to put on weight and by that time we had major head injuries three torn ACLs and he was told my crib was over by teen doctors even second opinions most devastating. But I grieved and I stumbled onto your career I still do thursday. But still now watching them play makes me wish I was young again had one more shot! Let me someday I'll meet him tomorrow about the chance when I play in the NHL. He had went over to the KHL and then when he came back I had already been retired. But I would have told him and I was struck at the end and told him how much he mentioned tall screaming poor kid that got bullied and told he sucks by the old hockey players now it never make any team. That didn't hurt me a lot I'll get that. But one day to turn around I used to hurt to end going for Android to motivation in the motivation turn into complete 100% dedication to training. My recommended 20 young hockey players out there definitely watch his game some people will compare you know completely make the game after 3 to 4 different guys . I say Guy LaFluer at the Boston God and when he was with the Rangers I was working Young and he was still the fastest guy in the ice no ham and on long hair flowing in the wind! Guy scores three goals to beat the bruins then he was like 30 something years old. Jagr should start working out his training program is insane I end up getting in touch with somebody that knew how we trained who trained him and I got his whole program and did it it's grueling didn't get you in shape and like a month. I hope he comes back to the NHL they'd be fun to see him jump on a Stanley cup content of this year cuz he's the check leak right now when he's a leading scorer and how old is he almost 50 some people say he came with a fake birth certificate? Please ask the older than he really is. Lol he's the type of guy that can play into a 60s no doubt! God bless him!
He is still playing to this day, unbelievable.
No Gretzky no Lemieux, just Jagr = best!!!!!
All 3 in same top category.
Not to take away from his amazing career and hockey brilliance. Please don't misinterpret. But Gretzky, Orr and Lemieux are at another level that even Jagr would acknowledge.

That's going to put that little bit out there if it were for him I never would have got drafted by New Jersey Devils.
