McDavid’s performance over the past 500 games

[KeithIsActuallyBad]

Is this another "downplay McDavid's accomplishments" thread? You can't do that while simultaneously saying the Oilers are poorly run (which they are).

Connor McDonald is legit

He's no Tanner Glass.

Nah Crosby would never be considered behind Jagr for second best penguin. Crosby just played his 1300th game and they're practically identical through that point with 1625 points for Jagr and 1622 for Crosby. Only reason Crosby doesn't have 4-5 art rosses himself is some ill timed missed games in seasons he was dominating. Doesn't diminish his actual level of play. Despite that he still has 2 richards, 2 conn smythes, and 1 hart on him. And that's not even getting into attitude issues that Jagr had towards the end of his time with the penguins.

Jagr literally saved Penguins in Pitt and made possible to bring to Pittsburgh players like Crosby and subsequently other Stanley cups. So by all means Jagr deserves to be perceived as the 2nd greatest Penguin of all time.

He did and he reached a higher peak/prime level of play than Crosby. With all of that said though I think Crosby’s overall 20 years definitely surpasses Jagr’s pens career. At his best he is definitely the second best penguin ever though if you are just talking peak.
